 From the README-builds.html included in openjdk:


        Bootstrap JDK

    All OpenJDK builds require access to the previously released JDK 6,
    this is often called a bootstrap JDK. The JDK 6 binaries can be
    downloaded from Sun's JDK 6 download site
    <http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.6.0/download.html>. For build
    performance reasons is very important that this bootstrap JDK be
    made available on the local disk of the machine doing the build. You
    should always set ALT_BOOTDIR
    <cid:part1.02080007.04020505 at redhat.com> to point to the location of
    the bootstrap JDK installation, this is the directory pathname that
    contains a bin, lib, and include It's also a good idea to also place
    its bin directory in the PATH environment variable, although it's
    not required.


So I think you might have to try using JDK6 instead of 5. Hope that helps.
