Description:
This is a version of BCEL that has been modified by the FindBugs developers. 
New functionality has been added, and some performance tuning has been done. 
This package is needed to support findbugs.  I originally patched findbugs to
use the system BCEL, but my patch was fragile, so I'm taking this approach now.
 It seems worthwhile to me to split this package, which is under the ASL 2.0,
out from findbugs proper, which is under LGPLv2+.

The existing BCEL spec file is way more complex than is necessary for this
package, so I rolled my own.  Furthermore, the BCEL build script tries to
download some unneeded jars.  That's why the spec file just invokes javac
directly.  I admit that I am not totally comfortable with this approach, but
since the end result seems to work just fine, it seems good to go with its
simplicity.
