lib-compat-1.4.ebuild
please look at the tarball. it doesn't contain files for ppc64. btw: what do you need this libs for?
I just discovered it like this: gdme0 sun-jre-bin # pwd /usr/portage/dev-java/sun-jre-bin gdme0 sun-jre-bin # grep -i depend *.ebuild sun-jre-bin-1.4.2.06.ebuild:DEPEND=">=dev-java/java-config-1.1.5 sun-jre-bin-1.4.2.06.ebuild:RDEPEND="sys-libs/lib-compat" sun-jre-bin-1.4.2.07.ebuild:DEPEND=">=dev-java/java-config-1.1.5 sun-jre-bin-1.4.2.07.ebuild:RDEPEND="sys-libs/lib-compat" sun-jre-bin-1.5.0.01.ebuild:DEPEND=">=dev-java/java-config-1.2 sun-jre-bin-1.5.0.01.ebuild:RDEPEND="x86?

please use ibm-{jdk,jre}-bin, as it is the only java available on ppc64.
