Fine with me.

Maybe <http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17634>.  I'm
not sure, but this looks like a regression (Ant 1.5.1 would happily
accept manifests in any encoding).

I'm not sure whether it is possible, but maybe it would be better to
give manifest an encoding attribute and make it default to the
platform's default encoding (compatible with 1.5.1 and earlier).  It
should always write UTF-8, though.

Not keen, but willing (and willing to pass the ball to somebody else,
for sure 8-).
