Hi Alan,

Besides of setting user.language and user.country, the patch also sets 
file.encoding, and sun.jnu.encoding as UTF-8.

I understand your concern: we're not sure if setting -Dxxx properties 
will have totally same functionality as setting env variable LC_ALL. I 
have no answer for this question.
What tests have been done:
  1. set user.* properties will affect what Locale.getDefault() gets, 
set file.encoding will affect what 
java.nio.charset.Charset.defaultCharset() gets.
  2. jprt passed.
  3. test on some other mac machine in SQE pool.

Do you suggest we should keep this test as shell?

Thank you
