ln -s ${LOCALBASE}/openjdk6/jre/lib/IcedTeadPlugin.so ~/.mozilla/plugins

the runtime equivelent to JDK6 Release 11.
Much of the OpenJDK code is licensed under the GPL version 2 with the
Classpath exception. The Java Hotspot virtual machine source code is
licensed under the GPL version 2 only.
OpenJDK 6 should supercede the java/jdk16 port at some point in time.
