What is the problemn you are having that this would fix?

The classes.zip reference is in there for JDK 1.1 and because VMs from that
vintage, if given a classpath not containing the classes.zip file, would not be
able to find critical classes such as java.lang.Thread

With more modern VMs, it is not necessary to add the jars in jre/lib, the VM
takes care of this and adding to the classpath is probably a bad idea.
