Any idea how to disable the LANG setting during rpmbuild? This is a tricky issue; from what I can see of a quick read of the JLS, it says that source files should be Unicode; but that's not useful here because it doesn't seem to specify the encoding. Anyways, if the OpenJDK compiler derives "ASCII" from LANG=C that's wrong. By default, it should assume input files are UTF-8. I guess the Python people made the same braindamaged mistake though =/ At worst, since Fedora has a policy that files in general should be UTF-8 encoded, we could carry a javac patch that assumes UTF-8.
