problem with libfontmanager in jdk 1.7.0u

[Mike Swingler]

The ideal solution is include instructions for obtaining, building, and integrating FreeType into the JDK build on <https://wikis.oracle.com/display/OpenJDK/Mac+OS+X+Port>.

Does anyone have a simple step-by-step instructions for how to pick the right release, building a minimal library required by OpenJDK, and then pointing the Mac JDK build at it?

Thanks,
