I didn't write that section of the Java guidelines, so perhaps I'm
misinterpreting it. But I read "...modifying IcedTea to look for JNI
shared objects in %{_libdir}/jni" as "multilib-aware". But maybe the
operative change is the /jni and not the %{libdir}, so the
IcedTea/OpenJDK change is really to be "JPackage layout aware"?
