Actually Android still doesn't use 100% of OpenJDK, that is just PR from Google supporters on the Android story, easily proven by looking into AOSP source tree,
What Android does is to use a subset of OpenJDK, and even that is pretty much dependent on which Android version one is talking about.
So it is still impossible to get a random jar from Maven Central and be certain that it will work of the box on Android, even on Android P.
