I'm afraid it's not as simple as that.  IcedTea doesn't package Rhino, it uses
the system installed version.  So to have the packages renamed, you'd need the
system installation of Rhino to be patched in that manner.

We don't want to be maintaining our own fork of Rhino within IcedTea.  I think
we need to look at a solution whereby Rhino is loaded with a lower priority
classloader that can be overridden.

An interim solution, other than the -Xbootclasspath setting suggested by Mark,
would be to remove the symlink from the JDK install.
