Here is a link to the portfile I put together for IcedTea 7 6 months ago.
If you look at the post extract there are commands that work around some of
the issues you have encountered. This was for JDK 5, but will probably be
similar for JDK 6. http://trac.macports.org/attachment/ticket/21500/Portfile.
I have not looked at this in probably 5 months as I have had limited free
time.
