I do see a couple of warnings being printed when I run the script:


$ bash bin/idea.sh
Note: Command line contains non-control variables:
* MODULES=
* IDEA_OUTPUT=/mnt/h/openjdk/git-jdk2/.idea
Make sure it is not mistyped, and that you intend to override this variable.
'make help' will list known control variables.

Building target 'idea-gen-config' in configuration 'windows-release'
Finished building target 'idea-gen-config' in configuration 'windows-release'


Other than that, the generated project files seem to work fine.
