Android's SDK works just fine with OpenJDKs, I'm using it with nightly OpenJDK builds in fact.

Though I have to admit that I don't use Eclipse integration or anything fancy since I build everything using Maven ( http://code.google.com/p/maven-android-plugin/ ) and IntelliJ IDEA.

The issue isn't the SDK—it's the AOSP release, which has a specific build-time check (in build/core/main.mk) to prevent building with OpenJDK. The check is new to the ICS release, so it's likely that some people haven't seen it yet…

Has anyone edited the check out and seen where the build actually fails?
