Hi Agarwal,

Bionic is highly optimized for battery saving on mobile device and is
mainly used in Android itself, but the SDK is running on a ordinary
machine, which mean Bionic is unnecessary for the SDK. This is the
same as we use OpenJDK instead of Apache Harmony to build and run SDK
tools written in Java.

Hence, there's currently no plan of packaging Bionic.

Kai-Chung Yan
