Have you gone through your ~/build.properties file and (possibly) your project.properties files to make sure you don't have some incorrectly escaped characters (remember, "\" is the escape character in java strings)...or maybe a byte literal that is incorrectly formatted?
This is a failure in the java.util.Properties class, if you notice from the stack trace, so it's probably not anything that maven can affect... Also, please don't cross-post your messages. This message is appropriate for the maven-users list, as is all non-maven-development traffic. If you're not modifying maven itself, you probably shouldn't be mailing to maven-dev.
