Because the source code and build infrastructure aren't included for either
the JAR or the native library in the source that Sun distributes(*).  You
could copy the included Linux/Solaris JARs over, but then you need to build
the corresponding native library somehow.

* - Actually, the source is there, but its bundled up and there is no
    build infrastructure.

Thats my recollection at least.
