Yes, for i386, but it is not officially supported (as it comes from the Sun
Community Source release), and licensed under Sun's "Research Use" license.

You can build JDK 1.2.2 or 1.3.1 from pkgsrc-wip, in wip/jdk12 and wip/jdk13
respectively.  There's also a JIT compiler usable with either version in
wip/jdk1[23]-openjit.

(Note:  There is also a JDK 1.1.8 release in pkgsrc/lang/jdk, with JIT
compiler in pkgsrc/lang/jdk-openjit.)
