Hi
The zero support is developed in the icedtea sourcetree.
The easiest way to build openjdk with zero for arm is download and use 
the icedtea buildsystem. Icedtea will download the openjdk sources 
pachit and build it with zero support.
I have built it sucessfully by compiling it natively on a arm machine 
with debian/armel installed, i dont belive it is possible to 
crosscompile the build at the moment.

Precompiled binarys for openjdk-6 with zero for arm is available in the 
Debian/armel distribution as well so if you have debian/armel installed 
on your board then you can get a prebuild jre by running.
apt-get install openjdk-6-jre

Cheers
