I took this into consideration from the start. You misunderstood my
plans. I don't plan to just stick it globally for all current Java
ebuilds as there is nothing in EAPI=1 that would warrant that. You can
see my plans in more detail in a later post in this thread.

As said in this thread you really can't set EAPI in an eclass.
