Well, the -Dfile.encoding=ISO8859-1 option is specified but does not
appear to have anything to do with seeing the LE storage report.

I browse the stdout and stderr files using the Bluezone built-in FTP
client, which "interactively" allows for EtoA translation or "binary"
viewing.  The verbosegc output is not readable with either option; the
rest of the output is presented in "plain English".

No, the LE storage report that occasionally appears in stderr is
perfectly readable.  Only the -verbosegc output appears as "gibberish",
regardless what -Dxxx.encoding I specify or where I specify it.  And the
"gibberish" appears only in stdout; never in stderr.

At the moment there appears no need to do that.  The problem seems to be
in getting a report from the "correct" environment.

Again, "I have a dump" if anybody wants to go diving....
