No, didn't change that. It has only the commented example line
#COMPILERS="ecj-3.1 jikes javac"
I don't see how to specify JDK version in there  :)
This is getting confusing, you have generation-1 system VM, generation-2
system VM, this compilers.conf... Any docs that explain how all that
works, what gets used where?  :)
And what means "Enabling generation-2 compatibility ..." line in some
ebuilds? BTW those ebuilds then use jdk-1.4 while ant-core doesn't print
this line and uses jdk-1.5...

Seems ant-tasks is affected as well, and can't be built because of that.

P.S. Um why doesn't this list have reply-to header pointing to the list
address...
