Compiling with Ice.jar in the class path leads to compiler warnings

jhubbard at aconcagua:~/code/scratch$ javac -classpath /usr/share/java/Ice.jar -Xlint:all HelloWorld.java
warning: [path] bad path element "/usr/share/java/db.jar": no such file or directory
warning: [path] bad path element "/usr/share/java/db-4.6.21.jar": no such file or directory
warning: [path] bad path element "/usr/share/java/usr/share/java/libdb4.6-java.jar": no such file or directory
warning: [path] bad path element "/usr/share/java/../db.jar": no such file or directory
4 warnings

This is because Ice.jar/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF defines non-existent class paths.  I could not figure out how to report bugs to zeroc directly but I doubt that this is an Ubuntu specific problem.  

llibzeroc-ice-java version 3.3.1-6
Ubuntu version 9.10

The workaround is to compile with -Xlint:all,-path, or ignore the warnings.
