JTReg tests results on other ports

[Jonathan Gibbons]

Scott,

You need to install a copy of junit.jar in the jtreg lib/ directory, or 
otherwise make it know to jtreg.  For licensing reasons, we can no 
longer redistribute a copy of junit.jar with jtreg itself.

If I recall correctly, you can also specify -nojunit to prevent jtreg 
from trying to run tests that would otherwise require JUnit.

I note your comment that the FAQ on the openjdk website is out of 
date.   I'll update it. The version of the FAQ bundled with jtreg should 
be more informative.
