Either fix the class file deleting etc. to work with jars, or always do a batch 
build when working with outjars.

zip files don't support adding or updating files in an existing jar (you need to 
take a copy and move everything across). This can be done, but is a bit of work. 
I'm reluctant to do it because the test harness does not support both 
incremental and outjar at the same time (and it was getting too difficult to 
make it work effectively) so I can't write a good test suite around it. 
Therefore for 1.2 I've added a simple test in AjState.prepareForNextBuild() that 
returns false (can't do incremental) if an outjar is specified. This ensures 
that results are at least always correct. We can do better post 1.2 when we have 
more time to update the test harness.

updating target flag to indicate inclusion in 1.2 release.
