I have noticed a behavioral difference in JDK8 decoding a two-byte
Shift-JIS sequence. Specifically, JDK8 appears to report malformed
input for what should be a valid Shift-JIS sequence, where JDK7
reported that the character was unmappable.
I assume this is related to JDK-8008386 [1] and I'm sure Sherman or Sean
will jump in to explain this (which seems to be related to a long
standing regression).
