I will try if I can package the latest version of the 2.x series
instead. Perhaps this might fix this bug as well. I don't know when I
will get to it though.

There are only very few packages left that build-depend or depend on
OpenJDK 7. I fixed two of them last week with an NMU and QA upload but
the rest are either candidates for removal or they can be fixed later.
In my opinion we should just remove OpenJDK 7, no need to wait for fixes.
