No. There's nothing 'old' about the 2.6 or any IcedTea forest. These
are still the basis for distribution packages, especially as they have
PPC64 and AArch64 ports for 7.

We are moving things upstream into OpenJDK 7 now we have better access,
but this isn't complete yet. I'll look at getting this patch moved up.
