I knew I forgot something! Thanks.

At the moment, we're just checking for javac, although I imagine it wouldn't be
too difficult to check for those others.  I think that in a couple of places
javac and jar are called explicitly (such as the library Makefile) so those
cases should be hunted down and generalized.  Should I go ahead and do that, or
just leave an XXX comment for now?
