Little update...
Looking at the ant jar task, it uses UTF-8 as the default encoding.So setting
System.setProperty('file.encoding', 'UTF-8') in the root project build.gradle
file seemed to do the trick.
However this begs the question... wouldn't it be a sensible default for the
gradle jar task to use UTF-8 ?

Doing the following produces proper filenames though:
task myJar { doLast { ant.jar(baseDir: sourceSets.main.classesDir,
destFile:file('build/libs/myjar.jar')) }}
However this is obviously not a preferred solution...

I've tried the following:1) On the command line: export
JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS=-Dfile.encoding=ISO-8859-12) On command line : export
JAVA_OPTS=-Dfile.encoding=ISO-8859-13) in gradle startup script setting
-Dfile.options in JAVA_OPTS4) in root build.gradle
System.setProperty('file.encoding', 'ISO-8859-1')
println outputs the correct encoding but to no avail for the jar task. I'm
baffled :.-)
I can get the compile working by setting compile dependency to the classes dir,
but thats obviously not helping much when the produced jar is containing class
files with messed up names.
