    Description

      The J2SE source file

      src/solaris/classes/java/lang/UNIXProcess.java.solaris

      contains non-ascii characters. Because the default encoding is ascii,
      the byte sequences in this source file that represent non-ascii characters
      cannot be decoded properly bu a java compiler without specifying
      -encoding iso8859-1 on the javac command line.

      Incidentally, the problem occurs in a French-language copyright notice
      that is quite out of date. The best fix would be to remove the French
      copyright notice and update the English one.

      We expect to add a new warning in the 1.4.2 javac compiler to
      detect and report these source encoding errors. See 4767128.
