I don't think that was ever an official policy.  We really shouldn't be mucking
with the drops unless there's some legal reason (encryption or closed source) to
do so.  In this case, if you don't want to ship the binary jars, just add the
removing of them to the steps used to make the tarball.  Drop the RHCLEAN.

This is a JPackage thing to deal with older, broken RPMs.  It's not strictly
against the guidelines but it's unnecessary.  I won't hold up the review on it,
though.
