I'd suggest splitting the issue into two different ones: The first one is interpreting the command line. I completely agree that we should do it similar to RI.
The second one is as Vladimir said that behavior is caused by something in URLClassloader or kernel classes. Vladimir, if you could provide a piece of java code that shows difference in the behavoir of RI and Harmony in those classes, so we could discuss how to implement the classes the best.
