I'm using Ant to create .war files for use with the Orion application
server.  Inside our main .war file (aka "mongoose.war"), there is a .jar
file that contains the "tag" information for Java 2 servlets (aka
"tags.jar").  If I use Ant to build both files, Orion complains that it
can't load taglib.tld from tags.jar.

The only way I've been able to make it work is to let Orion extract
tags.jar, then manually unzip it and rezip it using WinZip.  I change the
extension from .zip to .jar and copy the new jar over the one generated by
Ant.  I've tried turning off compression in the <jar> task to see if that
was affecting it.  No change.  I also tried using the <zip> task (with my
own manifest provided) instead of the <jar> task, but that didn't help
either.

I'm out of ideas.  Is anyone out there using Ant to make Orion .war files?
Anyone see something like this before?
