package: fastjar
Version: 1:3.0.2-0pre010908
Please look at the following command history. 'jar' is from j2sdk1.3.
Not only does fastjar obliterate existing contents in a jar when updating,
but, it appears it can also corrupt the file.
This mis-feature is making it difficult(read, impossible) for me to treat jar
files like .ar files, in make.
