As I mentioned in the bug report, it's not clear to me what the error condition is. My guess is:

- You are running on a machine where the default locale is zh
- Some tests fail because they expect the output in English, such as "Main method not found in class"
- However, on your machine, the error message is printed in Chinese, so the tests fail.
- You can work around the problem, and make the tests pass, by adding `JTREG="VM_OPTIONS=-Duser.language=en -Duser.country=US"`
