The problem is that although javavmwrapper exports JAVA_HOME to its
children, we're wanting to use JAVA_HOME during its invocation.

While I don't think a full blown tool to print out JAVA_HOME is
necessarily warranted, it may be useful to have javavmwrapper do
some substitutions on the command line arguments it is given, e.g.
"s/%%JAVA_HOME%%/${JAVA_HOME}" in this particular case.  Presently
I can only see uses for JAVA_HOME and the version, so this should
be quite simple to implement.
