Tamar,
I'm not sure what you mean by "the compiler project 'javac'". The
sources for javac are in the "compiler"
project in the langtools repository.
It seems there may be problems using the standard projects with
NetBeans 6.5. You might also want to try
NB 6.1. The problem is how well NetBeans handles (or doesn't handle)
overlapping sources in sibling
projects, which is a characteristic of the langtools projects, and of
the jdk projects as well, I believe.

I Tamer,
I believe you need to define this variable:
bootstrap.jdk=<path to an existing jdk 6 or 7>
in $HOME/.openjdk/build.properties.
see make/netbeans/README
