Do you really need to specify JAR and ZIP?

First, JAR isn't mentioned in the libgcj Makefile.am.  Is this used?
(We use ZIP for historical reasons only; when we switched to using jar
we didn't update the macro names in Makefile.am.)

Second, looking at my linux-x-mingw build, it looks like `jar' is
installed without the target prefix.  This makes sense since jar is
not target-dependent.

In theory we could install gcjh in this way too.  In practice it may
be too much bother.  I seem to recall this coming up before.
