JRun 4 Updater 6: Hot fix for defects 61163 and 61162

Issue

This TechNote provides a hot fix for the following JRun defects:

61163 - JRun does not recognize the Class-path in Manifest.mf when the EAR is deployed to the cluster directory.
61162 - A JSP in an EAR application has access to the classes specified in the Class-path of another EAR's Manifest.mf. As the EAR application has its own classloader, a JSP file in an EAR should not be able access the classes in another EAR.
