As the latter doesn't appear to have brought a crowd with pitchforks onto the streets then it might be a sign of slow adoption or maybe it means that folks are compiling with JDK 6 and deploying to 7.

Something is not making sense here. 
As mentioned earlier I used Apple extension FileManager methods with my trz package below. That was specifically written against nio.2, which means it requires java 7 to compile and run. It does both - unless this compile breaking thing is more recent than when I did the FileManager using parts?
