Ah, that was it. I was using clojure's -cp option with a path with a wildcard at the end, but forgot to enclose the path in quotes. Clojure was interpreting the second jarfile in that dir as the script I was asking it to run. It would be nice if clojure would die with a message about "too many arguments" in such a case, but I'm just happy to have figured it out.
