OK, I'll just make it part of eaj.

OK, I'll add a getBytecodeLocation to JoinPoint and
JoinPoint.StaticPart. That means we need to fix all the places in abc
that have the current JoinPoint[.StaticPart] interfaces hard-coded. What
kind of interface do we want to provide the name of the JoinPoint
interfaces (for the extension to communicate it to eaj)?
