jdk7/tl/jdk is the most suitable repository for you to clone as updates 
to the charset code will be pushed there. I keep nio/nio/jdk up to date 
but there isn't any charset work happening there. I appreciate you've 
got disk space constraints but I don't have a solution that would allow 
you build without a complete repository.
