You're right. I'm sorry, and I stand corrected.

Looking at the dev-java/sun-jdk ebuilds, it provides both virtual/jdk  
and vritual/jre; I really don't see a point with having dev-java/sun- 
jre-bin in the picture at all, given this. I think, then, that the  
proper solution should be as such:

Kito: Any input? Is the above alright on your end??
