One thing I generally do for this case is to create regular Java projects for the libraries, then remove the jre from the classpath and put the android.jar instead.
That method however has a couple caveats, namely that a/ the android.jar uses a full path (a pain if you have an SCM and different setups) and b/ you need to update it each time you update the SDK (which you probably don't do that often.)
