Building Java 7 on OS X Snow Leopard

[Brett Hoerner]

Hi guys,

Sorry I'm adding more to this (as some of you seem to have it working
now) but I'm trying to round up the process of successfully building
Java 7 on Snow Leopard into one place so it can put on a wiki or
blogged or something.

1) clone and update your local bsd-port
2) apply John Rose's snowleopard.patch to the bsd-port hotspot [1]
3) build bsd-port with GCC 4.0 and soylatte

Am I missing anything?  I believe I am as I still have build errors,

# ---------- my build script
$ cat build.sh
#!/usr/bin/env bash
env -i PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin
CC=gcc-4.0 CXX=g++-4.0 \
make \
ALT_BOOTDIR=/Users/brett/Development/java/jdk-build/soylatte16-i386-1.0.3/ \
ALT_FREETYPE_HEADERS_PATH=/usr/X11R6/include \
ALT_FREETYPE_LIB_PATH=/usr/X11R6/lib \
ANT_HOME=/usr/share/ant \
NO_DOCS=true \
HOTSPOT_BUILD_JOBS=1

# ---------- John's patch applied to the tree
$ hg fstatus

# ---------- error during build
cd bsd_i486_compiler2/product && ./test_gamma
java full version "1.6.0_03-p3-landonf_19_aug_2008_14_55-b00"

I've attached the full error log which shows environment variables,
etc.  Are you guys using a different soylatte build or something?

Thanks,
Brett
