OpenJDK 8 + lambdas build for OS X

Hi all,

I just grabbed the latest version of the OpenJDK 8 build from
http://openjdk-osx-build.googlecode.com/files/OpenJDK-1.8-x86_64-b11-20111112-release.dmg
but it doesn't seem to contain the recent drop of lambdas, as I was
unable to compile this simple Java class:

public class Main {
	
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		runMe(() -> {});
	}
	
	public static void runMe(Runnable r) {
		r.run();
	}

}

Or am I using an incorrect syntax? Or is it that the lambdas aren't
still included in the builds provided by that Google Code project?

Cheers,
