Don't know why this didn't occur to me before but this is exactly what |

the Java team does for IBM's jdk/jre. IBM releases all micro releases |
14 |
under a tarball of the same name so end users already have to rename it |
15 |
before placing it in ${DISTDIR}. The only difference there is IBM's |
16 |
files were already fetch restricted. |

In any event, even though I'm not part of the QA team, thanks for |
