No, from scratch. Here's how:

Procedure to build openjdk 

Install the required packages
  * build and install mercurial from pkgsrc 
  * build and install nspr from pkgsrc 
  * build and install cups from pkgsrc 
  * build and install gmake from pkgsrc 
  * build and install java1.6 from pkgsrc 
  * build and install ant from pkgsrc 

Fetch the sources (this will make a bsd-port directory where you are) 
  * hg clone http://hg.openjdk.java.net/bsd-port/bsd-port
  * hg clone http://hg.openjdk.java.net/bsd-port/bsd-port/corba
  * hg clone http://hg.openjdk.java.net/bsd-port/bsd-port/hotspot
  * hg clone http://hg.openjdk.java.net/bsd-port/bsd-port/jaxp
  * hg clone http://hg.openjdk.java.net/bsd-port/bsd-port/jaxws
  * hg clone http://hg.openjdk.java.net/bsd-port/bsd-port/jdk
  * hg clone http://hg.openjdk.java.net/bsd-port/bsd-port/langtools

Fetch the plugins (binaries that have not been open sourced yet) 
  * mkdir bsd-port/plugs
  * cd bsd-port/plugs
  * ftp http://www.intricatesoftware.com/distfiles/\
      jdk-7-icedtea-plugs-1.6a.tar.gz
  * tar -xzf jdk-7-icedtea-plugs-1.6a.tar.gz

fetch the 1.7.0 jdk and put it in /u/christos/jdk1.7.0 
make sure you have set/unset the following [adjust for local taste] 
  * unlimit
  * unsetenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH
  * unsetenv CLASSPATH
  * unsetenv LD_RUN_PATH
  * setenv TMPDIR /var/tmp
  * setenv ALT_NSPR_HEADERS_PATH /usr/pkg/include/nspr
  * setenv ALT_CUPS_HEADERS_PATH /usr/pkg/include
  * setenv ALT_FREETYPE_HEADERS_PATH /usr/X11R7/include
  * setenv ALT_FREETYPE_LIB_PATH /usr/X11R7/lib
  * setenv ALT_DEVTOOLS_PATH /usr/pkg/bin

The following two should be customized: 
  * setenv ALT_BOOTDIR /usr/local/jdk # Get a working java jdk
    binary (the only one that I have is the one that I build myself.
    The linux emulated one keeps core-dumping). Alteratively you can
    put wrappers that ssh to a machine that has working java and nfs
    mounted source and destinations trees in the same path.
  * setenv ALT_BINARY_PLUGS_PATH /u/christos/bsd-port/plugs/jdk-7-icedtea-plugs
  * setenv ALT_JDK_IMPORT_PATH /u/christos/jdk1.7.0

cd bsd-port && gmake 
The resulting build should be in build/bsd-<arch> 


Enjoy,
