I looked into this.  The problem is, URLClassLoader caches the
toString() result but does not reset it when a new URL is added.
Whoops.

All the jars definitely do end up in there though, at least in my
simple test.

We can easily add a configuration option for this.  If we only need
one directory we could just have our RPM install a symlink (the
compiled-in extdir is not created by the gcc install process).
