The -R switch is required to prevent a file disclosure vulnerability.  
The -R option isn't available in 1.5pre5, but it's in the 1.5 release
version available from <http://sourceforge.net/projects/openjade/>.

If the validator on your system is available to untrusted users, I 
would recommend upgrading your OpenSP and retaining the -R option.
