Why are java and javac included in the prebuilt binaries?

Hi,
While removing javac should be doable, I think dropping the java
launcher is more problematic, as that launcher is called by the jextract
launcher.
So, doing something like that would require a deeper restructuring of
the build layout I'm afraid.
