doesn't seem to work on java 1.4 either...

1.5 is package.masked

I prefer this solution in src_unpack()


sed -i \
        -e "s:property name=\"javac.source\" value=\"1.1\":property
name=\"javac.source\" value=\"1.2\":" \
        -e "s:property name=\"javac.target\" value=\"1.1\":property
name=\"javac.target\" value=\"1.2\":" \
        build.xml || die "sed failed"

For those that want an ebuild to fix the problem, I did submit one under bug # 
107719.  The powers that be marked it as a duplicate of this one and set as 
resolved.  I don't know if that means the ebuild will make it into portage or 
not.
