I fear in the future it would be easy to overlook the introduction of
extra bundled jars in the source, that'd get installed.  I feel it'd be
preferable if we removed them all from a source snippet, at the cost of
having to patch the build system (the extra complications you
mentioned).

Could you try it and send a revised patch?

Thanks!
