If I read the =app-text/pdftk-2.02 ebuild correctly, it actually uses GCC 5.4.0, regardless of what your system compiler is (6.4.0 for
profile 17.0):

        # We need gcc-5 because of Java
        export PATH="$(gcc-config -B 5.4.0):${PATH}"


Yes, but you can change this to

RDEPEND="sys-devel/gcc:6.4.0[gcj]"


which works just fine.
