      jdk1.4.0beta-b47 API method Character.UnicodeBlock.of(ch) returns incorrect
      value for 0xFFFE and 0xFFFF chars.
      According to Unicode3.0 standard these chars don't belong to any block.
      But jdk1.4.0beta-b47 API implementation of Character.UnicodeBlock.of(ch)
      returns Unicode block "SPECIALS" instead of null.

      The following simple test reproduces this:

      public class test {
          public static void main(String[] args){
              System.out.println(Character.UnicodeBlock.of((char)0xFFFE).toString());
              System.out.println(Character.UnicodeBlock.of((char)0xFFFF).toString());
          }
      }

      Due to this, updated according to Unicode 3.0 in JCK Merlin test
      api/java_lang/Character/UnicodeBlock/index.html#Methods[UnicodeBlock0002]
      and new JCK Merlin test
      api/java_lang/Character/UnicodeBlock/index.html#Methods[UnicodeBlock2002]
      fail.
