The latest help screen for javadoc shows [classnames] as one of the acceptable
kinds of files to pass into javadoc.  We should remove this choice,
as this only works for the private -Xclasses option (which is not listed).

% /java/jdk/ws/tools/doclets/stddoclet/dkramer/build/solaris-sparc/bin/javadoc -help
usage: javadoc [options] [packagenames] [sourcefiles] [classnames] [@files]
