I believe you are correct in your original statement, and that there is something wrong with the java startup script. You do not need to set JAVA_HOME. The startup script has code to locate all installed versions, set JAVA_HOME if not already set, prioritize them, and execute the latest one; but it doesn't seem to be working properly. There is no javavmwrapper, at least in my installation(s). The java startup script (/usr/local/bin/java) indicates it is itself javawrapper.sh. If JAVA_HOME is not set, the startup script finds a java by using make, and that finds openjdk6 when openjdk6 and openjdk7 are both installed. In this case, the script is not using the installed prioritization list in /usr/local/etc/javavms. It seems to me it should be checking this before resorting to what make finds. However, you can avoid this behavior and get the right thing by setting JAVAVM_FALLBACK_ONLY=1 gary
