If we (or say they) do the swtich, the porting of the kernel part will be huge, and test results in the past months will be wasted.

How do you compile the compiler?

I tried to build openjdk6 first (then I may try use this JVM1.6 to build my 1.7 version if possible), but got familiar error during java code compilation, which told me something like 'cannot find class'. > > Why not people just write Java compiler in C... :( > > Or shall I test to build the java-part of openjdk7 on another host (maybe any computer with openjdk1.7 installed) ? Though I still don't know how to do that.
Ports-mgmt/portdowngrade has a -r option, which will recursively allow you to install a port + its dependencies at a lower version. Try that on it perhaps?
