Wouldn't save much space (it's only 6.3K gzipped) but would assauge
any worries about redistributing Apple code.

http://www.snailshell.de/blog/archives/2006/01/entry_37.html reports
that "...this approach does not work as expected - you cannot use
more than one Java application that uses the linked stub at the same
time... So it seems we'll have to wait for Apple to provide a reliable
solution". Ho ho ho. That's a shame, but any actual problems with
incompatibility of JavaAPplicationStub versions (which is the most
serious problem addressed by this technique) can be remdied on an
as-needed basis.
