No, apparently I have a symlink there:

$ ls -l /Users/scott/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.7.0.jdk
lrwxr-xr-x  1 scott  staff  70 11 Jan  2011 /Users/scott/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.7.0.jdk -> /Users/scott/dev/openjdk/build/macosx-universal/j2sdk-bundle/1.7.0.jdk

and that "seemed" to work.  Perhaps it isn't a good idea?

Thanks, I'll try it out.

I wonder why isn't this or something like it committed to the Mercurial repo?

Cheers,
