I was doing rm -rf /usr/share/sablevm - but OK, I'll take it back
and remove AUTHORS from /usr/share/doc/sablevm (where they can
be compressed if the file is bigger than 2(or3?) kb.

Yes and no. There's _a lot_ of packages that include libs along with
binaries. And there's noting wrong with it as long as either
1. nobody uses those libs externaly
or
2. if binary interface changes in incompatible way - package gets
new name, ex. foobar and then foobar2

I thought we'll have 1. here but if we can not (hopefully ;-) - I have
described now package scheme in previous mail. Would like to hear
your opinion about it of course.
