Hi,

now I feel really like an idiot. Everything is back as it was 
originally: incompatible change in Looks API were rolled back, 
prj40_prototype tag on openide sources was removed and projects build is 
using openide from main trunk again. I've updated build instructions and 
automated build script. Please update your sources.

P.S.: The changes in Looks API will be done on private branch and 
propagated sometime later ....
