+1 I, for one, think including it is a good idea, even if I'm mostly just too lazy to go fetch the jar myself. And, if we do import a copy, we can add a bogus package name to the front (like `org.gnu', or something) so people can use Classpath with a different version of ASM, and not need to worry about breaking the tools. Thanks.
