Building current JDK on a Japanese Windows fails when making oldjavac.
I tried this build on WinNT 4.0 Japanese (Service Pack 6)
with VC++ 6.0 (Service Pack 3), MKS Toolkit 6.1 and IE 5.

Following is the output from gnumake:
 
gnumake[5]: Entering directory `C:/sfws/make/sun/javac/oldjavac'
 
if [ ... ]
then ../../../../build/win32/bin/javac ... (huge file list) ... fi
 
Error occurred during initialization of VM
java/lang/ClassNotFoundException: sun/io/ByteToCharMS932
gnumake[5]: *** [.compile.classlist] Error 1
gnumake[5]: Leaving directory `C:/sfws/make/sun/javac/oldjavac'
gnumake[4]: *** [optimized] Error 2
gnumake[4]: Leaving directory `C:/sfws/make/sun/javac/oldjavac'
gnumake[3]: *** [all] Error 1

gnumake[1]: *** [all] Error 1
gnumake[1]: Leaving directory `C:/sfws/make/java'

The environment setting for the build was:
 
ALT_BOOTDIR=C:\JDK1.3 (1.3.0rc2-V)
 
PATH=C:\Progra~1\MI017E~1\Common\msdev98\BIN;C:\Progra~1\MI017E~1\VC98\BIN;
C:\Progra~1\MI017E~1\Common\TOOLS\WINNT;C:\Progra~1\MI017E~1\Common\TOOLS;
C:\mks\mksnt;C:\WINNT_JA\system32;C:\WINNT_JA;C:\Tools;
 
(Progra~1\MI017E~1 is DOS name of VC6++ directory)
 
INCLUDE=C:\Progra~1\MI017E~1\VC98\ATL\INCLUDE;
C:\Progra~1\MI017E~1\VC98\INCLUDE;C:\Progra~1\MI017E~1\VC98\MFC\INCLUDE;
 
LIB=C:\Progra~1\MI017E~1\VC98\LIB;C:\Progra~1\MI017E~1\VC98\MFC\LIB;
