It is a standalone library, used heavily by the OpenEJB and Geronimo
guys.  Most, if not all, of the code was written by David Blevins, one
smart guy.  Whether we use the library itself (it is in Maven) or copy
the code, it doesn't matter.  The code has been in use for several
years heavily, so it is well-tested and mature.

Personally, I favor copying the code over and jarjar'ing the asm dependency.
