The (jar) tool manifest file information is broken in JDK1.2Beta4-E
build.

When creating a jar file with the latest JDK1.2Beta4-E build the
manifest file contains no information or wrong information. The
"-m" option of the (jar) tool does not store the manifest file
information is should. Here are the examples:
