      This change was made in JDK 7 b19 or so, and is also in open jdk 6.
      It creates these files:

      <jdk>/demo/jpda/
      src.zip -- source code for jpda examples
      jpda.jar -- .class files for jpda examples

      Previously, this Makefile just created examples.jar which contained
      the source code for the jpda examples.

      It seems to me that we should undo this change because:
      - the doc bundle refers to examples.jar
      - users might be used to seeing examples.jar
      - maybe we should not include dependcies on outside utilities
        such as zip in the JDK?
      - it doesn't seem worth wasting bandwidth and disk space
        for the .class files when very few people actually use these examples.
