Among a ton o' other things,
package: tomcat6.noarch 6.0.24-36.el6_2
  dependency: java
   provider: java-1.5.0-gcj.x86_64 1.5.0.0-29.1.el6
   provider: java-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64 1:1.6.0.0-1.41.1.10.4.el6
   provider: java-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64 1:1.6.0.0-1.50.1.11.5.el6_3
   provider: java-1.5.0-gcj.x86_64 1.5.0.0-29.1.el6
   provider: java-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64 1:1.6.0.0-1.56.1.11.8.el6_3
   provider: java-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64 1:1.6.0.0-1.57.1.11.9.el6_4
   provider: java-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64 1:1.6.0.0-1.42.1.10.4.el6_2
   provider: java-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64 1:1.6.0.0-1.43.1.10.6.el6_2

You'd think there'd be options, but no

You'll note that unlike actual JREs, java-1.5.0-gcj is just 140k.
