Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_20-b02)

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Trying to use BreakIterator returned by getLineInstance().

It's breaking on WORDS, not LINES.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Run supplied code

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
I expected the text to be broken on LINE boundaries, but it's breaking on WORD boundaries.

I got this:
=======
idx1=0 idx2=4
idx1=4 idx2=7
time=>>>now <<< author=>>>is
<<<

There is no Line Break between "now" and "is"
ACTUAL -
I expected this:
============
idx1=0 idx2=6
idx1=6 idx2=-1
time=>>>now is
<<< author=>>>the time<<<

The Line Break is between "now is" and "the time"

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
