As far as I can tell from https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=350976, two completely different versions are being compared; OpenJDK/IcedTea 7 vs. proprietary Oracle binaries for 8. Try emerging icedtea:8 from java-overlay and see if this solves the issue.

It seems likely that a fix needs backporting from 8 to 7 to fix this there, but there's not enough info here to tell what that might be.
