Well, you can update to the JDK 1.1.7 v3 which will automatically notice
that you don't have X up and running or you can set the environment
variable NS_JAVA to true such as:
export NS_JAVA=true
With the JDK 1.1.7 v3 release it looks for the DISPLAY variable and
will automatically set NS_JAVA if DISPLAY is not set.

The JDK diffs file is the diffs from the Sun source code - it is not
a diff from v1a to v3.
