I don't feel the pain of lack of modern Java support that much, because I spend most of the time on NDK, but there the tooling support also leaves a lot to be desired, like partial STL support or the whole story regarding build infrastructure.

Xamarin looks a nice proposal out of this mess and as a JVM/.NET/C++ consultant, with focus on native apps, I have been looking into it as possible alternative.
