Make /usr/bin/java a modified version of your proj.sh, wher you add
that if you set CLASSPATH, proj.sh (or /usr/bin/java) only adds system
class-path to your CLASSPATH with stuff that is needed to run a basic
clean Java machine.  Or even doesn't add anything at all.

Then you can override system class-path.

And it will be your responsibility to set that class-path right in
CLASSPATH.
