Not at the moment. I have no idea how I'd go about implementing 
something like that atm.

There is complete pain in the ass way, though ;)

Copy the files into libraries/javalib, run find to list all the new 
files, and append the output of all new files to 
profiles/allatonce/all.files.

I've fixed Kaffe's install-jar script to put jars into kaffe's lib dir, 
and kaffe script will pick them up automatically. Just use install-jar 
my-crypto.jar.
