  *                      enterprise bundle archive (EBA)         *

  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:  Ensure JAR archives used as bundles within  *
  *                  EBA applications do not contain entries     *

  ****************************************************************
  Malformed JAR archives containing entries with leading '/'s in
  EBA applications lead to unexpected behavior and FFDCs.
  

Problem conclusion

• The code affected by the malformed JAR entry has been updated to
  tolerate the presence of such entries without causing FFDCs.
