      Solaris(locale set to ar)2.7/Sparc with N build.

      javac can't compile any source that has a numeric number. If a source code
      doesn't have a number I was able to compile but wasn't able to run it.

      MyTest.java:?: illegal character: \????
            System.exit(5);

      [The following symptom is a duplicate of 42558439. Please disregard here - norbert@eng 1999-08-20]
      When I run any precompiled code(for example, build N's SwingSet demo) it gives
      me like no matter what with or without -classic,

      java -jar SwingSet.jar
      Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: initDisplay
              at sun.awt.X??GraphicsEnvironment.initDisplay(Native Method)

      I can't compile or run anycode in arbic Solaris2.7 with solaris patch for
      kestrel.
                                  
      (what we did)
      . install arbic/hebrew locale
      . install solaris patch for kestrel
      . set JAVA_FONTS environment to [JDK]/jre/lib/fonts (we also tested without setting JAVA_FONTS we saw the same problem)

      Unless we missed other steps build N doesn't work in ar Solaris2.7.

      (notes)
      When we run the same thing in hebrew locale Solaris2.7 it was perfectly fine.
      classic/hotsparc vm returns the same problem in arabic locale Solaris2.7.
