Could it be something in my config?  I will investigate this next.

Here is a screenshot after opening some failing files:

The top half is the main jar file of the maven project.  It gives no
error message but opens empty.  The same thing happens with the
-sources.jar file in the same directory.

The bottom half is the -javadoc.jar, which is the file that gives the
stacktrace in the git when opening.

Putting the cursor at the end of the -javadoc.jar buffer and pressing
'C-x =' reports: point=322410 of 322409 (EOB) column=1105

329454 seems to be way beyond 322409?

The behaviour is identical on a different debian 11.6 "bullseye"
computer with the same emacs 27.1 version.
