gcj and ant are both packaged on Gentoo, but I don't know if they work on arm. 
We could certainly find a way round it.

There is an ebuild for IcedTea6 in the java-overlay:

svn co https://overlays.gentoo.org/svn/proj/java/java-overlay/

That warning from the Ant manual sounds hugely outdated.  It doesn't mention
ecj for one thing, which is what gcj now uses as its compiler.

I think the mailing lists (distro-pkg-dev at openjdk.java.net) may be a better
place for this discussion, as it's not a bug that you don't know how to compile
it and that should reach a wider audience.  You may also find some help with
Gentoo related questions on the IRC channel #gentoo-java on the FreeNode
network.
