ebuild for jonas-4.6.1

As I need jonas, I have create a little ebuild for it.
It seems to run correctly (I say it as I dont often write ebuild).

Clean the ebuild

Clean the ebuild.
Use fowner and fperms to set rights correctly; and move it directly into
src_install.

A few comments on th style of the ebuild:
* Use ${PV}, instead of hard coding the version. This helps a bit when trying to
do version bumps.
* Is there a particular reason that fetching is restricted? It is an opensource
project after all.
* Probably don't need to depend on ant/bcel at build time, since nothing isn't
being build

That being said, this is technically a binary package, since the source isn't
compiled at merge time. This is looked down upon when the source is available.
To comply with the Java policty
(http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/java/java-devel.xml) , the ebuild should not be
using the bundled / packed jars that come with the source tarball. Instead, they
should use jars from other packages. 

Being such a big project, jonas probably has a lot of dependencies, and I'd
guess a lot of them are unpackaged. If anyone goes forward with making the
ebuild use packaged dependencies, please be sure to check bugzilla and the
experimental Java overlay (http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/java/#doc_chap7) to
avoid duplicated effort.

Removing the EBUILD keyword until changes in Comment #4 are implemented.

HOMEPAGE looks somewhat dead and I doubt this project is still alive. Closing this bug.
