Looks good to me, except:
+  REQUIRED_COMPILER_NAME      = GCC4
+  REQUIRED_COMPILER_VERSION   = GCC4

The JDK should be buildable under both llvm-gcc (which it currently uses) and clang, which is the future, since llvm-gcc is now in maintenance mode.

If you are restricting your builders to Mac OS X 10.7 now, you can actually cut over to using clang soon, since it has no known bugs compiling the JDK (right Alex? I'm not completely hallucinating this right?)
