BioJava depends on commons-dbcp:0, which requires Java 6. Even the
latest "legacy" version 1.9.1 does so and no one wants to do the
difficult bump to 4.1.0. Mauve depends on BioJava but being a very
outdated live SVN ebuild, it probably doesn't work anyway. This goes
for Mauve Aligner too. Removal in 30 days. See bug #556470.

 # Masked until 2.0 final arrives, which hopefully won't depend on
 # commons-dbcp:0 as that requires Java 6. Note that the 2.0 in the
 # tree should have actually been 2.0_beta1. There are no revdeps.
