jythonc compiles a .py into a real java class, right?  I dont want a real
java class.. it doesnt need to be accessible from java, only from
python.  this is why i originally included the generated file$py.class
(which i assume is similar to cpython's .pyc files), but that didnt work.
does jpython only look for real java classes in jar files, and not python
class files?
If that is the case and i do need to generate a real java class, what is
the minimum i can put into the @sig tags so it works?  should everything
be java.lang.Object, or org.python.core.PyObject...?
or is there a bundling mechanism other than jar that works with jython?
