Maybe your tar version doesn't handle long path names?
It seems to work for me:

$ tar zxf classpath-0.20.tar.gz
$ cd classpath-0.20/examples/
$ ls gnu/classpath/examples/CORBA/SimpleCommunication/communication
DemoServant.java              StructureToReturnHolder.java
DemoTester.java               TreeNode.java
DirectTest.java               TreeNodeHelper.java
RequestTest.java              TreeNodeHolder.java
StructureToPass.java          WeThrowThisException.java
StructureToPassHelper.java    WeThrowThisExceptionHelper.java
StructureToPassHolder.java    _DemoTesterImplBase.java
StructureToReturn.java        _DemoTesterStub.java
StructureToReturnHelper.java

This is with tar (GNU tar) 1.15.1

Cheers,

Mark
