Just in case someone wants to continue, here's some notes on getting
JBuilder to start. The main obstacle right now is that it needs Java
1.2.2, and we don't have a working one. I tried the blackdown.org Linux
port, but it's fireworks back and forth in the wrapper script.

Getting JBuilder going:

 - install JDK 1.1.6 (pkgsrc/lang/jdk)
 - add /usr/jdb/bin to PATH
 - cd /usr/JDK/lib/i386/green_threads ; mv libjpeg.so libjpeg.so.bad ; 
   ln -s libjpeg_g.so libjpeg.so
 - run ./installer.bin
 - on the crash, add /usr/jdk/lib:/tmp/install.dir.XXXXX:. to
   your CLASSPATH
 - cd /tmp/install.dir.XXXXX
 - mv locales locales.BAK
 - run:

	/usr/jdk/bin/java_g -Djava.compiler= -noverify -Dlax.nl.env.path=/usr/jdkin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/pkg/sbin:/usr/pkg/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/ucb:/etc:/root/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/jdk/bin com.zerog.lax.LAX /tmp/install.dir.11553/temp.lax /tmp/install.dir.11553/env.properties

After that, it complains that you need JDK 1.2.2:

findJVM: JVM 1.1.6
findJVM: JVM is NOT ok
...
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: java/util/ArrayList

Punt.
