Perhaps we can install a /usr/local/lib/classpath/libzipjar.so or
whatever shared library. Then VM's can link to it (or dlopen() it)
if they please... we'll also need a header file.

I don't have time to do this right now (I'm slow when it comes to
automake, etc.) but can help get the source files ready for import, etc.
