And after reading it again, it should also mean, that you shouldn't
use such a thing:

--8<---------:- snip -:---------8<---------:- snip -:---------8<--
[...]
export CLASSPATH="$HOME/project/name1.jar:$HOME/project/name2.jar"
java -cp $CLASSPATH ...
--8<---------:- snip -:---------8<---------:- snip -:---------8<--

Instead use something like this:

--8<---------:- snip -:---------8<---------:- snip -:---------8<--
NAME1=$HOME/project/name1.jar
NAME2=$HOME/project/name2.jar

[ -r /etc/app.classpath ] && source /etc/app.classpath
export CLASSPATH="$NAME1:$NAME2"
java -cp $CLASSPATH ...
--8<---------:- snip -:---------8<---------:- snip -:---------8<--

Or simple wait until we have sorted the issue out and use the agreed
upon way. :)
