I think the <jar> task doesn't allow for the -u flag because it's trying
to be compatible for JDKs less than 1.2, which don't have that option.
Personally, I'd rather see it offer the option, and just have
error-checking in place for java.version not being compatible with the
option.
What kind of error does your <exec> task result in?
