Build ID:  I20081016-1126

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Set IBM's 5.0 JRE as default and run the latest I-Build
2. Try to create a Java Project
3. You will get an error saying: '' is an invalid name on this platform.

No stack traces are found.

More information:
The ClasspathEntry.resolvedChainedLibraries() method tries to read the Manifest and if the ClassPath attribute is empty (as in the case of ibmcfw.jar), it creates a classpath which ends with an newline. Eventually when the folders are created for this path, it tries to create a folder for each segment and it fails in creating the '\r' folder. The error:

'' is an invalid name on this platform.


Workaround: 
    Use a different JRE. (I tried the one bundled with Sun's 1.6 JDK)
