When I run

 jedit foo.bar

I'd expect jedit to open the file "foo.bar" in the *CURRENT* directory. That's
not what happens - instead, jedit tries to open a file in the /usr/share/jedit
directory.
.
That does not seem to be a problem of jedit per se, as 

 java -jar /usr/share/jedit/jedit.jar foo.bar

works as expected.

The issue also appears, when I use a relative path specification (e.g. "jedit
../blah/blah.txt").

This happens with Sun JRE 1.6 and also IBM JRE 1.6.
