Comment(by mvfranz@…):

 Replying to [comment:1 ryandesign@…]:
 All great points.

 > My notes so far:
 >
 >  * "/opt/local" is hardcoded in some files; you must arrange to use
 ${prefix} instead, for example by putting "@PREFIX@ in those files and
 then using reinplace in the portfile
 I will change the hard coded values of /opt/local.
 >  * why are you making a tmp directory in /var/tmp? ${workpath} is a
 port's temporary work area; can't you make a directory in there?
 I can change the temp directory without a problem
 >  * in the configure.args, the number of parallel jobs should be taken
 from the variable ${build.jobs} which is based on the setting
 build_make_jobs in macports.conf
 I will use the ${build.jobs} variable.  I had copied some of this from the
 openjdk6 port.
 >  * in the destroot phase, why use tar to copy files? Can't use use the
 tcl "file copy" procedure?
 This I copied from the openjdk6 port.  It worked there, so I did the
 easiest thing.  Let me try to figure out a tcl based implementation.
 >  * patchfile patch-openjdk-hotspot-src-share-vm-utilities-
 globalDefinitions.hpp.diff is referenced by the port but missing from this
 ticket
 I attached the missing file.

 I'll upload a new Portfile when I have something working.
