------- Additional Comments From tromey at gcc dot gnu dot org  2003-08-21 02:16 -------
I've seen this before.  It only happens with .zip files that
have extended time stamps, I think.  As I recall this is a
bootstrapping order problem, where when trying to initialize
Calendar we end up needing to load a class, but as the
system class loader hasn't yet been fully initialized, we die.

I don't remember if there is another PR about this or not.

I'd have to do more research to find the fix.  I suspect it
may involve separating the bootstrap and application class
loaders, something we've been meaning to do for quite a while.
