The document doesn't explicitly state it, but java-check-environment
should be upset with you using a 1.5 system vm. In the event that it
doesn't mind... then it's a bug.

The new system has a separation between the system vm, and the vm used
to compile package (fuller details here [1]) The vm used at build time
is determined by the virtual/jdk dependency of the ebuild and settings
in /etc/java-config-2/build/jdk.conf . In this jdk.conf, you could go like:

*=sun-jdk-1.5

And it would try to build packages that it can with 1.5. If a package
can only be built with 1.4, then the vm would be switched to a 1.4 vm.

So.... this suggests to me that you have a line like the one above in
jdk.conf. Is this the case?
