Please keep in mind that 4.7 was superseded more than two years ago,
and the whole 4.x branch was superseded as the -STABLE branch six

That may not work; 4.7-STABLE is what eventually became 4.8.

Try the RELENG_4_7 tag, and maybe it will include the changes you need.

If not, maybe you should try a Linux JDK; some of those are in
FreeBSD's ports system, too.
