I think it is just softlinked. Do you not have past versions here:
~ chuck$ ls /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/
1.3 1.3.1 1.4 1.4.2 1.5 1.5.0 1.6 1.6.0 A Current CurrentJDK

I like this solution as it will put us back exactly where we were before the update, just not sure how to do it as it looks like we only have one version of the JDK on there: 1.6.0_51_b11-457. It looks like the update from Apple overwrote the old JDK 1.6.0 with the new one (version 16 according to apple's versioning scheme). Is there any way to get back the old version of JDK 1.6.0? I would prefer that to switching to a new version of wotaskd and javamonitor...
