I think we can't do that, since how URLClassLoader treats file: URLs
is already defined.  I admit it would be really unusual for someone to
name a jar file `foo.so' and expect it to work as a jar file, or to
rely on the jar file reader giving an error if they specified a real
.so file.  But both those behaviors are what the standard JDK would
give.
