JMock in java/tests.rb

The JUnit and TestNG support automatically pull in JMock without an 
option to disable this. Any idea why this is done? It seems rather 
arbitrary to pull in one specific testing library.

This is causing problems in my builds because jmock pulls in hamcrest 
1.1 while my unit tests depend on hamcrest 1.2.

Anyone against removing this or at least making it optional?

The reason was convenience since they are/were often used together.

I'm good with an option to make it optional and/or configure the version
used.
