On windows 2000, I just use the *nix shell emulator cyngus which comes
with a jar utility which both jars and unjars(works just like tar).
Also, you don't need to rejar them if you are just using them yourself.
All of my chrome directory is used by mozilla in an unjarred state and
there don't appear to be any negative side effects, but patchmaker
unjars it for me so I don't know what changes need to be made to the
chromelist..
