What do you mean, you "removed it"? What is ALT_BOOTDIR currently pointing
to then and is it a valid JDK 1.2 installation that can run under FreeBSD?

Its completely related to ALT_BOOTDIR :). The compile is trying to
execute javac from ALT_BOOTDIR/bin and is having trouble doing this.

You need a JDK to bootstrap the JDK (well, thats not strictly true, but
you need access to one somewhere). If you've got ALT_BOOTDIR pointing at
something which isn't a valid JDK then your compile can't work.
