I don't get any errors with latest kaffe from CVS (on
solaris), so you might want to give the latest source
in CVS (or kaffe 1.0.7, which fixed a few issues with
jars) a try.

it doesn't need to ;) Check out the docs for jar on
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/tooldocs/solaris/jar.html
: you'll see that you have to group all options
together. So -t -v -f will not work. The '-' is
optional, really.

best regards,
