Jars for testing need to be removed too, they could influence the build
by modifying source files etc. when run.

Also, some licenses (e.g. GPL) require you to to publish the source
code whenever binaries are published.  I don't know if this is the
case for the bundled jars, rhino or dependents of rhino, but it's
simplest to just remove the binaries.

Greetings,
Maxime.
