FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.4.0"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.0-b92)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.0-b92, mixed mode)


FULL OPERATING SYSTEM VERSION :
kernel = 2.4.8-26mdksmp
glibc = glibc-2.2.4-6mdk
distro = Mandrake Linux release 8.1

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
BreakIterator.getLineInstance() is breaking on embedded
periods in a line. For instance sun.com breaks into "sun."
and "com". This was reported to have been fixed if you look
at bug 4242585, but if you try the test on newly released
1.4.0 you can see that it isn't.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1. See test case in bug 4242585
 to reproduce.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
See 4242585 for expected/actual results.

This bug can be reproduced always.
