No I haven't and I see now what you mean, I didn't read what you put carefully enough. Still you might be able to do it this way, IIRC we used to distribute javac in a javac.jar that was distributed with JBoss to different platforms and it seemed to work OK.
I thought the only reason we weren't distributing tools.jar in the same way is because of licensing issues with Sun. That of course brings up a problem with 1) you can't distribute any package you create that contains tools.jar (I think). Perhaps the easiest thing to do for the Jetty dist is to reference tools.jar as if it exists in the lib/ext dir and simply include a README telling people what is going on, then they can supply their own (platform specific if neccessary) jar.
