        PLIST without jdk15-plugin should be fixed

        That should also be fixed.

        That is... very odd. That the last three imply the client VM is
        not being built for amd64. Does 'java -client' work?. As for
        java-rmi.cgi, I have no idea why it would be omitted...

        Interesting... on i386 NetBSD 5 symlinking
        /usr/pkg/java/jdk-1.5.0/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so
        into firefox's plugin directory is enough to get java working
        in firefox3 - tested by going to
        http://www.bubblemark.com/java.html (57 fps on my T60p)

        I wonder why the amd64 build is so different...
