If it were that simple.. :( No. I can see a make process which has 
entered the "Suspended" state. Both with and without the LOG=trace, 
which is slightly weird.

Right now I'm running a test where I explicitely create the 
images/j2re-image/bin directory before going into the Images.gmk file. 
While no proof, this has been running for a couple of hours at least 
now, which is good. (Normally it hangs after 1 or 2 iterations.) I can't 
really explain why it should help, but then again I can't really explain 
why it fails either.
