New description:

 I"m trying to install subversion, which apparently required db46, which is
 set to "--enable java", which means it requires jikes.

 But I get, while db46 is configuring:

 checking if jikes works... configure: error: The Java compiler jikes
 failed (see config.log, check the CLASSPATH?)

 I tried install jikes by itself:

 sudo port install jikes

 and it seemed to install without problem.

 For the moment, I've hacked the db46 portfile and removed the --enable-
 java line, as I don't use java for anything, but who knows what I'm
 breaking!

 (it does seem a bit much to need a java compiler to have a subversion
 client, though)

 Macports 1.8.1
 I'm running OS-X 10.4 on a PPC.
