new build uses wrong libfreetype.so

[Magnus Ihse Bursie]

The /java path is not default in the new builds since it is Oracle-internal. That said, we're looking for a way to smooth the transition for those who have a Oracle-style Java path in their environment. Expect a --with-java-path option (or similar) to appear soon. 

The new build will default to 64-bit builds on all 64-bit platforms. This includes sparcv9. This is a conscious decision. If you want 32-bit builds on a 64-bit platform, you have to be explicit about it.
