[gentoo-java] javatoolkit Depend problem

[Alistair Bush]

While installing a new vm for testing stable I ran into an build error 
on sys-lib/db.  It was caused by the following chain of events.

1) Follow install documentation.
2) Configure USE="java" and JAVA_PKG_STRICT=1 in make.conf before 
(emerge -avutDN world)ing
3) emerge -avutDN world.
4) Watch as sys-lib/db attempts to call class-version-verify.py and then 
dies saying that the class version is incorrect.

Most should be able to figure this out via the output [1] below.

So the question is,  do we move the DEPEND on javatoolkit.  If so where? 
java-utils-2.eclass?  or do we update java-pkg_verify-classes() to check 
for whether class-version-verify is actually available before attempting 
to use it?
