I didn't say "remove". All I'm saying is that subclipse currently only
works for Windows users and McClain Looney and that's bad.

For Linux users, it's hard to setup, doesn't work reliably (with the
exception of McClain Looney) and that's bad.

Maybe a solution would be when subclipse would automatically decide
if it should use javahl or the cli but I guess it would be impossible
to test the resulting code (either, one code path wouldn't be tested
or it would be impossible to test the automatic switch between the
two).

It would also not solve the problem that the cli version is much
lower quality than the javahl version.
