In the interest of uniformity, please rename your libraries to omit the
"lib" prefix.

The other problem I see emerging here is that in certain environments,
the "java" language may not be trusted, such as when it is compiled
with GCJ. Then, this built-in template will override the CREATE
LANGUAGE specification and introduce a security hole.
