Yep, 0.11 doesn't compile on JDK 7, i tested that about 3 weeks ago or so. 0.12 does compile fine, but I didn't do "full testing" of that. I recall that even in 0.12 there were things not "fully" fixed, unlike 0.13/master. But I would say upgrading to 0.12 is right thing to do sooner rather than later.
