FULL OPERATING SYSTEM VERSION :
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
Also occurs on Windows 2000 and Solaris 8.

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
This bug is similar to 4102610, except that it occurs on Solaris as well.

If I type in TextArea some cyrillic text, it shown
properly, (same text inserted in JTextArea also shown ok)
if I enter same text with append(String) or insert(String,
int) then only question marks are shown.
If I copy Cirillic text into TExtArea, it show also only
question marks.


STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1. Start TextAreaTest
2. You see at left side TextArea at right side JTextArea
3. Text area show only qwestion marks instead of Cyrillic
text; in JTextArea at right side you can see which text
shold it be.
4. If you have installed Cyrillic keyboard in your computer
try to type some cyrillic text into TextArea. It shown
properly.
4a.Mark text you now typed, copy it and paste it into same
TextArea. You see question marks.
4b. Paste it to WordPad. WordPad show text properly. (It
show us that copy FROM TextArea is OK).
5. Copy some text from JTextArea to TextArea. TextArea
show question marks instead of your text.


EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
Expected:
I expect that TextArea show properly foreign characters also after copy/paste
and insert()/append().

Actual:
But only typed characters appear properly. Copied and programmatically
inserted characters appear as question marks.

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
