Running on device fails with vogar and passes with command directly

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a simple TestMath.java with some junit tests
2. run "vogar --mode host src/TestMath.java"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
expected output is passing test. Actual is a class path exception:

 Dalvik VM unable to locate class 'vogar/target/TestRunner'
    W(26020) threadid=1: thread exiting with uncaught exception (group=0xf5e54380)  (dalvikvm)
    java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: vogar/target/TestRunner
        at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method)
    Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: vogar.target.TestRunner

If I run the command (keeping cached files), I get success:

The summary says "Running on device" but you passed "--mode host" which means 
run with a dalvikvm on the host. Did you mean to use "--mode target"?

Yes I meant running locally on host against dalvikvm compiled against x86.

1. So running with vogar fails with class not found
2. Using the same command as outputed by --verbose (i.e. the one above) yields 
correct result.

I am unfamiliar with "--mode target"
