Hi
I have an encoding problem when building openjdk 8 on my Windows 7. My windows is Chinese environment but I exported LANG=C in cygwin bash before building. The issue is that in module corba and jdk, some java classes are generated by program. They happen to contain Chinese characters in comment. However, they are compiled with explicit option "-encoding ascii" in makefile. This results in unrecognizable chars complained by javac (Error: encoding ascii unmappable chars) . I have a patch that removes all unnecessary "-encoding ascii" but I am not sure all its side effect. Shall I submit a bug?

  Best regards,
  Frank
