But is it gnu/linux?

Meme aside, that's a good question... I wonder how much GNU made it into Google's implementation. Someone here probably knows.

none. Android uses just the Linux kernel, not the GNU user space tools.

That's why Android is normally not counted as Linux, it's basically a different OS using the Linux kernel.
