javac server: No port file values materialized. on AIX

[Erik Joelsson]

There is a bug for that as we see the same thing on Solaris from time to 
time, as I see you know. Andreas, who is the main engineer working on 
sjavac, is currently on vacation. We don't currently know the cause of 
this issue. Any help would be appreciated.
