Maybe you had the bad luck to install an awesomely dodgy ebuild. Here's what
it should be:
# ls -al /etc/bash_completion.d/java
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 Oct 27 03:08 /etc/bash_completion.d/java ->
/usr/share/bash-completion/java
You can either just fix the symlink, or remerge bash-completion.
I'd also check /etc/bash_completion.d/ for any more dodgy symlinks
