Could you please be specific about the error?

The NetBeans projects have not been updated to take advantage of the binary 
plugs, and still require a full JDK 7 in order to work.  In other words, the 
current documentation provided with the NetBeans projects is correct.

In my ~/.openjdk/build.properties:

bootstrap.jdk=/data/bin/solaris/i386/jdk1.7.0
jtreg.home=/data/lib/jtreg
make.options=\
     ALT_BINARY_PLUGS_PATH=/data2/ws/6-open/openjdk-binary-plugs \
     ALT_BOOTDIR=/data/bin/solaris/i386/jdk1.6.0
