When jar is run using bin/jar it runs .java_wrapper which then runs bin/sparc/green_threads/jar or bin/sparc/native_threads/jar. This file looks like this

#!/bin/sh

#
# source a script that extracts RUNTIME_ARGS and APP_ARGS
#
. `dirname $0`/.extract_args

#
# Run the archive tool
#
`dirname $0`/java -ms8m -verbosegc $RUNTIME_ARGS sun.tools.jar.Main $APP_ARGS

I don't see why verbosegc should be on. It looks like it was probably left on by accident during during development. Perhaps we need a jar and jar_g like many of the other tools have.
