  - did you check that the increase in size still allows bootstrapping
    using gcj on more uncommon architectures, and that the memory
    footprint doesn't change too much to the worse?
  - we already have the option to configure with fastjar, why change
    that to an explicit dependency on zip? (No, I don't care that much).
