Can anyone tell me why jar can't deal with symbolic links?  I have
a directory in my source tree containing graphics files, etc. and I'm
building my java classes to a separate, parallel tree.  I'd like to just
simply create a symbolic link to the graphics directory, but when I
run "jar cf foo.jar", it complains "./graphics/graphics: no such file or
directory"
followed by a java.io.FileNotFoundException...

I know that I can work around this by copying all the files, but why is
java sensitive to links?  This feels like a bug.
