I have to say that this issue of the 72 chars has been around for quite some 
time. We have kept the hardline of (we do what the spec says and if you do not 
like it, use someting else). I wonder if we should reconsider our stand on 
this.

It is not only certain appServers, it is also any library that creates its own 
ClassLoaders and missed this particular issue. Notice that the bae classes in 
Java do nothing on your behalf, so there is really quite of room outthere to 
hit this problem. Is it too much to ask to have an attribute:

  useOutofSpecClasspathLongerThan72chars=true

Notice that the Class-Path thing did not show until 1.2, with no real support 
from the JVM itself.
