Please provide the full build.log like portage suggest you to do it.

Please give us the output of "emerge -pv jmol"

I asked you to give us the output. For me, its everything between command prompt and next command prompt. ;-)
prison ~ # emerge -pv jmol These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

I just realised that my previous emerge output is slightly misleading because I had just attempted to emerge it. From a normal fresh install there is a dependency list too, so it looks like this: prison ~ # emerge -pv jmol These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

Since its neither from the main tree nor from any supported overlay, there is nothing we can do about it. If you need help to create a working java ebuild, i suggest you ask in #gentoo-dev-help or #gentoo-java irc channel instead to get some support.
Uhh - I got confused by another bug about 11.7 and my own forgetfulness. My bad, sorry.
