jar files are definitely allowed in jde-global-classpath.

What jde command are you using to compile your project? Try to go the
compilation buffer and check if the javac command for your compilation is
what you expect it to be. Run the compilation from the command line to
verify that it works.

If you think it might be a JDE bug, submitting a problem report to the list
will help in figuring out what the issue is.
