Jar command and I18N

I can't seem to get the 1.3 Jar command to recognize non-ASCII filenames - when I jar *, it does jar them up, but translates characters in the filenames to +' etc. The files are in UTF-8 and Jar supposedly supports UTF-8??
PS - Can the -i flag help me on this? according to the spec at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/guide/jar/jar.html it says that "The UTF-8 encoding is used to support non ASCII characters in file or package names in the index file" so I assume that non-ASCII filenames are supported...
