Android 4.2 is coded as API level 17, so the project target has to map
with something that supports it in project.properties.

Currently we have:
Google Inc.:Google APIs:17

This tells me that no inly do they have to support Android 4.2, we
have to support Google's secret sauce as well.  This should be changed
back to "android-17" unless someone can give me a good reason why we
want Google APIs specified as a dependency.
