Apparently configure defaults to 'unzip' even if it doesn't find one:

    AC_PATH_PROG([UNZIP], [unzip], unzip)

How odd.

I don't believe so, but it is hard to be sure.  AFAICT unzip is only
used by the script implementation of jar in some cases.

If tools.zip looks ok then the next step, I think, would be to see
what jc1 is trying to read from tools.zip when it dies.
