CLASSPATH difficulties

I'm migrating my existing Jetty 4.0.rc1 into 4.2.3 and trying to use the 
start.jar mechanism. My classes (shared across several webapps) are currently 
in an open directory structure, not in a jar.

My console log is:


admin@d0:/opt/jetty> echo $CLASSPATH
/home/admin/classes
admin@d0:/opt/jetty>java -DDEBUG -jar start.jar etc/jetty.xml 2>debug.txt

debug.txt looks like

-----------------------------------------------------


T jetty.home=.                                     ! exists 
$(jetty.home)/lib/org.mortbay.jetty.jar 
  jetty.home=.

---------------------------

/home/admin/classes _does_ exist as a directory.

I have three questions:

1) Why doesn't the constructed CLASSPATH start with (or otherwise contain) my 
directory?
2) Why _does_ it start with opt/jetty/Jetty-4.2.3/start.jar when there is no 
CLASSPATH+= debug entry for it?

3) Are the two related?

I've looked through the source code of  ..start/Main (neat work Jan!) and at 
Classpath, and can't see why it does not find my class.

I've even yanked some of Jan's code to compose a test program (attached). 
It _does_ find my directory!

admin@d0:/opt/jetty> java TestClassPath
System Property: /home/admin/classes
elements: [/home/admin/classes]
