Really the only reason Arguments isn't exported to Java is because the
interface (right now) has a C array of strings, and that array doesn't
map automatically naturally to Java.  What would be needed is to
change the API a bit so that the array could be built up using a sequence
of calls.  

Some people use Java `properties' to do get a similiar kind of feature.

Finally, there is a lispAppArchiver analogue in Java.  See jheatbugs
for an example of that.
