I've given you a real shell so that this can go through.  You may need to restart Eclipse to refresh any SSH sessions you have.  I'll try to make the repack work with our restricted shell.

A couple of us on jetty are seeing this as well.
Comment 3 Eclipse Webmaster CLA 2011-09-30 10:36:56 EDT 
I've added the repack command to the allowed list. Jesse can you let me know if this fixes the issue?  If it doesn't can you send me an email with the errors and we can try a workout a time for some testing.

-M.

After some more digging I think I found the root issue.  I've patched the restricted shell and asked Jesse has confirmed the errors are gone.
