Step-by-step OpenJDK on OS X?

[Ben Evans]

Hi Charlie,

My understanding is that the current bsd-port is still broken for OS X and
that we expect it to be unbroken sometime soon.

I documented the last working build I had at:

http://boxcatjunction.blogspot.com/2008/12/some-updates-to-build-process.html

If the current bsd-port tree is in a reasonable shape and will build, I
would be very up for helping get the latest MLVM patches applying to it and
building on OS X.

Thanks,

Ben
