woah... big -1.  This is a *bad* idea IMO.  If you think that stuff is cool just
link to a .jar or have a "links" section in README of other cool stuff do DL.

This would be a massive duplication of work with no benefits.  If you want the
libraries to be standard with gcj like SAX/DOM interfaces just ship a .jar.

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're NOT out to get you.
