build log of ibm-jdk-bin

I've been emerging lxde-meta, which needs dev-java/ibm-jdk-bin.

Following the error message, I visited http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/jdk/linux/download.html
but there is no link named SR9-FP2 under Jave SE6.

So I tried to download ibm-java-sdk-6.0-9.2-linux-ppc.tgz from
https://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/iwm/web/preLogin.do?source=swg-sdk6&S_PKG=ipseries32_6sr9fp2&S_TACT=105AGX05&S_CMP=JDK

However, no .tgz files are found at the site.
All the files of the site are .bin.

I wgeted ibm-java-sdk-6.0-9.2-linux-ppc.bin into /usr/portage/distfiles.
However, portage cannot use it.

What should I do to build ibm-sdk-bin for lxde-meta?

Java is no longer supported on ppc and we will be removing ibm-jdk-bin soon.
