[fedora-java] Shipping of binaries in jar files

The eclipse PTP project that I package is starting to ship an executable in 
one of its plugins.  The executable is packed into a jar file.  This prevents 
debuginfo creation for the executable.

I started taking a look at how this might be handled elsewhere and found:

/usr/lib64/eclipse/dropins/cdt/eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.cdt.core.linux.x86_64_5.2.0.201302132326.jar:
    13327  Defl:X     3624  73% 02-13-2013 23:21 326488c7 
os/linux/x86_64/libpty.so
    23720  Defl:X     7151  70% 02-13-2013 23:21 c26c2c94 
os/linux/x86_64/libspawner.so

but no debuginfo package.

Thoughts, comments?
