. Mark this for deprecation.  These are early versions of what current JDKs
  have included in the java.util.concurrent package by default since Java 5.

Decommissioning java 1.5 (EOLed since October 2009):
suppress any reference to USE_JAVA=	1.5+ (part1)

Now that the Java 1.3 and Java 1.4 ports are deprecated and will expire soon,
remove support for them from bsd.java.mk.  As Jikes is not available in Java 1.5
or higher, remove it from bsd.java.mk too (suggested by hq@) and from the ports
which used it (only occurences were USE_JIKES=no).  Support for the Blackdown VM
is also removed, as it is not available in Java 1.5 and higher.

Also remove the mapping from Java 1.1-1.4 to Java 1.5+ in bsd.java.mk to detect
old, broken ports; therefore bump the minimal value of JAVA_VERSION to 1.5.
While here, replace static values of JAVA_VERSION in files/*.in by
%%JAVA_VERSION%% .

Bump portrevision due to upgrade of devel/gettext.

The affected ports are the ones with gettext as a run-dependency
according to ports/INDEX-7 (5007 of them) and the ones with USE_GETTEXT
in Makefile (29 of them).

This package provides standardized, efficient versions of utility classes
commonly encountered in concurrent Java programming. This code consists of
implementations of ideas that have been around for ages, and is merely intended
to save you the trouble of coding them.

The package mainly consists of implementations of a few interfaces:

  * Sync -- locks, conditions
  * Channel -- queues, buffers
  * Barrier -- multi-party synchronization
  * SynchronizedVariable -- atomic ints, refs etc
  * java.util.Collection -- collections
  * Executor -- replacements for direct use of Thread

Plus some utilities and frameworks that build upon these.

This package was the precursor to java.util.concurrent.
