Meh... yeah, not an easy choice. jdbc-legacy is cleaner, but we never
deprecated the classes in jdbc.
Using the same name for the new jar might confuse people that setup
their classpath by hand ("what? this jdbc.jar is not the same as it
was?").

Striking a compromise, we can go for a deprecation and then
wipe out all the modules in the next round of cleanups (I guess that
will have to wait for 2.7... or maybe just a few minor versions of
2.6, not sure).
