I think it's because of this limitation:
https://github.com/aldersondrive/bazel_openbsd_port/blob/ed6bf038b7c2a9a676ff88741f86cf431a653f18/bazel/pkg/DESCR#L14-L15

It would probably be an improvement to search the PATH for `javac` if
JAVA_HOME is unset. Bazel does that on Linux. The FreeBSD port always
uses a fixed fallback path, though, and the OpenBSD port inherited
that behavior. If there's interest in the port I can probably send a
pull request to add the path-searching behavior upstream.
