Hi Martin,

I would assume you are not asking for a similar flag for jar to disable the zip64 support (or even something at API level) to generate "old" style jar/zip file for > 64k entries, but the backport of this changeset to 7u, right? Actually, I think y'all should do 3 things: - backport Kumar's bug fix to jdk7 - introduce a system property to turn off the zip64 support. I am working on a patch to introduce such a system property. We will probably default to disabling zip64 by default, but you will probably find that unacceptable. But you can default the other way. - fix up some remaining largefile issues in parsemanifest I might contribute a bit of code here as well.
