OK.
Folks think they want jexec, but in practice it doesn't work as well as they would like, and people instead have more success with the prepend-executable-to-jar-file trick.
argv-size checks here don't matter in practice. The dreaded system-limit-of-doom, namely the argument-list-too-big limit, will get them first.
