Given that all of Google's development and testing happens on builds
created on 64-bit machines, there's some level of risk in letting
device manufacturers use 32-bit environments as we don't know what
happens in those cases. Java6 allows us to standardize on 64-bit and
eliminate that risk.

Ah! So, that explains the problem I'm getting with the libz.so as well. I'm trying to build on a 32bits Ubuntu.

All the open-source codelines that mirror Google's internal froyo
branches (i.e. froyo and the various android-2.2) use 1.5 like
Google's matching internal codelines do, since that is the version
that Google developed and tested with through the entire froyo
development cycle.
We backported the changes to switch to version 1.6 (64-bit) from our
internal master branch to the open-source master just as we switched
our internal master branch to 1.6, since from that point there was no
requirement for contributions to the open-source master branch to
build under 1.5 any more.

-there doesn't seem to be a way for a 64-bit JVM to load a 32-bit JNI library.
-there doesn't seem to be a way for a 32-bit JVM to allocate more than
a few GB of RAM.

As of froyo (a few months ago), there's no vendor/ tree in the
open-source build any more. All the stuff that used to be there in
donut has been merged into the main platform code.

I work with 3 different devices (three different ODMs), 4 products for each.
I presume that the devices I will be porting to the new folder device/, but what about the products ?
Thanks,
Tiago
