CNI doesn't need special handling.  I was more interested in how it
would be used for pure-java libraries.

But I was just confused a bit by the inclusion of the cflags stuff.
But of course java applications won't need this at all.  But they'll
still need the link-time flags.

I wonder if we could extend pkgconfig so that we could point a package
config file at a .jar.  Then it would be useful for other java
libraries, in the same way it is useful for C/C++ libraries.
