I've tested it and checked it in as it was. My
HAVE_JAR part didn't work as expected, so I've left it
out.

Checking for 'jar' resulted in gcj's jar getting
picked up, and that one doesn't support adding files
to an archive yet (gcc 3.2).

If someone is on a platform where you don't have zip
but you have a fully working jar tool, I'd like to
know about it ;) On the other hand, we should probably
leave the responsibilty to figure out the proper calls
to automake, once it can build jar archives. The
automake developers are working on it, AFAIK.
