And while the java-pkg_dohtml is discussed, it's worth to mention
that there is a bug (http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=114831)
concerning exactly this function.

The reporter points out that there is no documentation for java-pkg_dohtml.
A single paragraph with conclusions from this thread would be sufficient
to close the bug IMHO.
