Currently, it is not necessary to use JDK compatible with the
build system. This is the case for Tycho and I also believe this is true
for PDE/Build too. For example, build.eclipse.org uses win32 version of
1.4 jdk as far as I can tell. At least it was when I was setting up BREE
libraries for CBI build.

What JDT bug?

JDT does not calculate compile classpath, at least not during Tycho
build, so the bug should be against Tycho, not JDT

If you are talking discrepancies when building against SUN and IBM JDKs,
I do not know enough this to know if the problem is in JDT or IBM JDK. I
brought this issue on cbi-dev earlier [1], btw.
