I untarred Xerces using redhat 8.0 tar and retarred it and the files are slightly different sizes and it still generates all kinds of random files. Perhaps a bug reading the directory information? This is the md5 hash of the offending Xerces file. a203579b9b49b74f759717f388c4bbfa jdori.archive=${tools.dir}/jdori-1_0-fcs-src-04_Mar_2002.zip tjdo.archive=${tools.dir}/TJDO_2_0_beta2.zip xerces.archive=${tools.dir}Xerces-J-bin.2.3.0.tar.gz
