Confirmed (after I've run `eselect java-nsplugin set sun-jre-bin-1.6` manually, because the plugin was non-functional for some reason after upgrade...).
simple workarround is using the jdk version :)
Yep yep. Accidentally made the ebuild install the gcc-2.9 version when I tried to remove the old version support. Should now be installing the right version by adding back the has_version hack.
:) nice thanks for all
