We can handle Japanese characters with JDK for Linux. but,
JDK 1.1.7v1a for Linux has a bug that a `file.encoding'
property isn't set correctly.
With JDK for Solaris, we can get a `file.encoding'
property set to `EUC_JP' by setting environment variable
LANG to `ja' or `japanese'. But with JDK for Linux (and
for FreeBSD), A `file.encoding' property is `8859_1'
even if LANG is `ja_JP.ujis' or `ja_JP.sjis' or
`ja_JP.iso-2022-jp'.
