Great so this will merge the in-line manifest with the specified manifest 
(manifest="manifest.mf") ?

I can see it is contentious, but what happens when there are overlapping Class-Path 
entries ?

The manifest spec say you can have multiple Class-Path entries as I read it, but from 
viewing the 1.4.1 code it looks like the section merge code will replace one with the 
other

Thanks very much for clearing this up (sorry about the feature grab ;-)

Cheers,
Matthew
