First of all - what are you running - some release, -current? Because
fstat64 IS implemented since about December 2000 (around that) - if
you're running 2.8-release (probably -stable, too), you won't have it.

If you grab new ports, you have at least to be aware that they may
require more recent things, brought in -current - developers cannot care
about the releases, since the development is done under -current.

Also, I believe this is only a warning, and the jdk may work without it?
If it doesn't, or you don't want to ignore the warning, try updating
only the linux compat sources and recompiling your kernel
(/sys/compat/linux).
