To be clear: The normal LWJGL artifacts have separate jars for
per-platform natives. In OSGi, however, it's more typical to bundle all
native libraries into the same ... bundle ... so I did this when I
produced them.

We have a set of Maven POMs here that repackage the existing LWJGL jars
into conventional OSGi bundles:

These are very much not an integral part of LWJGL (as Ioannis said:
LWJGL knows nothing about OSGi), they're developed and maintained
separately because I need OSGi support.
