Ok, I've removed most of those from the jdk & langtools repositories for 2.3, 2.4 & trunk
with the exception of the J2DBench sources and deflocale.sh (which seems to be a mistake;
a script with a GPL header).  See [0] for the J2DBench sources.  The code seems to be under
a usable BSD-style license, so I can't see why we'd want to remove the whole tool.  If you
have something more specific, we can work on it.
