Is it only .jar files that cause the problem? I note from your previous 
message that some jar files get imported OK, while others don't. Can you 
see any pattern to the ones that cause a problem? I'm assuming, by the 
way, that the messages you posted earlier were an extract from a much 
larger log.

Hmmm... well, it's a long shot (the NEWS file doesn't mention any bug 
fixes similar to your problem) but version 1.11.20 is available.

OK, so it doesn't appear to be a problem with the binary flag. Unless... 
can you double-check the status of the binary flags on the problem files 
using 'cvs status'? They should all indicate 'kb'

I'll be unable to check emails for the rest of the week. Hopefully 
someone else can step in and pick up trying to figure this out. (If 
anyone else cares to step in and offer suggestions, please feel free to 
do so :=)
