Comment (by karsten):

 I wonder if we're talking about two different things.  Let me paste a
 partial diff of build.xml:

 {{{

        <include name="commons-codec.jar"/>
        <include name="commons-compress.jar"/>
        <include name="junit4.jar"/>
 +      <include name="xz.jar"/>
      </fileset>
    </path>
 }}}

 This change must go in, or the code won't compile, right?  (I didn't test
 this branch yet.)  I'm not arguing against this change.

 This is the change I'd rather not want to merge for the reasons stated
 above.

 Does that resolve any confusion?
