OK, I have rebased the mlvm patch repository to hsx/hotspot-comp. If you have been reusing your upstream source repositories (based on bsd-port), you will have to discard them and pull instead from hotspot-comp.
As a temporary solution for building on Mac OS, I have included a set of new patches called patches/*/jdk7-b147-to-bsd-port.patch which capture the relevant differences from bsd-port, and are applicable to the contents of hsx/hotspot-comp/*/. When we get the bsd-port changes folded into hsx, these ugly patches will go away. BTW, if you build on Mac OS, you need to enable the guard "bsd-port" in the patch queue guard files, or else the ugly patches won't get rolled in. The makefile (in patches/make/) attempts to do this automagically for you. Please give it a whirl and let me know what breaks.
