Sorry for being unclear.  The above note was meant to read
as greater-than jython-20pa2.class.  I
tested pa3, pa4, and pa5.  I was unable to get any of the
three to work.  Expected behavior for 3, but 4&5 both create
EOFExceptions and uninstall error messages.

Here is the console (note: classpath already set):

[bash]:java jython-20pa5 -o /export/home/rbill/jython-20pa5
try path /export/home/rbill/
error while copying Tools/jythonc/main.py to /export/home/rbill/jython-20pa5/Tools/jythonc/main.py: java.io.EOFException: Unexpected end of ZLIB input stream
IOException java.io.EOFException: Unexpected end of ZLIB input stream

==================================================

I've tried other directories, UIDs, paths, etc (I was reaching
here :), but the exception/uninstall result is consistent.

Let me know if there is more info needed.
