State-Changed-Why:
    I looked at this a bit today.  It is an obscure bug in BufferedReader.
    
    What happens is that we read a line that ends in \r\n.
    However our buffer ends just after the \r.
    (There is a lot of code in BufferedReader to handle this case.)
    
    However what follows is that Manifest calls mark(), read(), and finally reset() on the BufferedReader.
    This causes the BufferedReader to lose track of the fact that it was between \r and \n.
    Then our reading of the manifest gets off-kilter and from
    there things progressively get worse.
