Hi!

I want to run jikes in a unicode environment, so I try setting
-encoding UTF-8. Jikes is built with iconv (from the port) and iconv
works well, but jikes just hangs forever if I try the -encoding option
with UTF-8. When I set -encoding ISO8859-1, it complains about
"Charset conversion error at offset 149: Illegal byte sequence", which
makes it even more odd.

Any ideas?

Palle
