This should be addressed once we update all of the android-platform-* source
packages to the latest version from Google (5.1.1+r8).

Simon is right in that these are basically private libraries.  Upstream
statically links them into each executable.  That didn't seem very Debian-ish,
so instead I structured it as private shared libraries.  Nothing should link
to these android-lib* shared libraries that is not part of the Android source.

A single source package might make some things easier, but it would be about
8-12 gigs in size. That would make it very difficult for many people to work
with that source package.
