All of the jar building was modified so that jars go into images/lib not jdk/lib. So it should not be necessary (or desirable) to build into jdk/lib and then copy over. Sherman can confirm, but I believe the TzdbZoneRulesProvider requires it in the lib directory so it would need to in jdk/lib when running/testing without in a non-images build.

-Alan. tzdb.jar is special that it is a data file in jar format. It's not a jar for classes. It needs to be generated in jdk/lib (non-images build) for developing and testing. Okay - sounds reasonable then. David is indeed correct with how we would like to have it. But I can understand the exception explained by Alan, so I think this is ok and the correct way of doing it.
