Oddly enough, $ export LANG=C fixed it for the subsequent make clean && make run, which printed the same "Using java runtime at: /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.7.0.jdk/Contents/Home/jr" message after printing the test results, and carried on. I think we should document the export LANG=C setting in the Mac OS X section of the build README for 7u. cheers, dalibor topic -- Oracle <http://www.oracle.com> Dalibor Topic | Principal Product Manager Phone: +494089091214 <tel:+494089091214> | Mobile: +491737185961 <tel:+491737185961> Oracle Java Platform Group ORACLE Deutschland B.V. & Co.
