This is easy to do with kaffe using the .kafferc feature (see man page).
Here's mine, for example:

  #!/bin/sh

  # Add installed *.zip and *.jar to CLASSPATH

  AUTOZIPJAR=`find ${KAFFE_CLASSDIR} \( -name '*.jar' -o -name '*.zip' \) -a \! -name Klasses.jar -a \! -name pizza.jar -a \! -name classes.zip | awk '{ printf ":%s", $1 }'`

  CLASSPATH="${CLASSPATH}${AUTOZIPJAR}"
