Sorry, that is my fault. I checked in java/net/URLClassLoader.java which
depends on the java.util.jar package which doesn't compile with plain
Classpath because of the missing java.util.zip files. The attached patch
to lib/standard.omit fixes the problem. I will commit it in little while.

The reason that I didn't see the problem is because I configure classpath
with: ./configure --with-jikes --with-japhar 
--with-javah=/usr/local/gcc-3.0/bin/gcjh 
--with-classlib=/usr/local/gcc-3.0/share/libgcj.jar
And libgcj does contain all the java.util.zip files.

The website is a bit out of date, but we were hoping to import jazzlib
<http://jazzlib.sourceforge.net/>. I don't know if that is actually
going to happen.
