<i18n dev> [7u]: org.omg.PortableServer.AdapterActivator.java compile fails on French platform

[Francis ANDRE]

Hi

Found a surprising issue when building the jdk7u on a French platform with this 
compile error

Z:\JDK\JDK7U-~2\build\windows-i586\corba\gensrc\org\omg\PortableServer\AdapterActivator.java:8: 
error: unmappable character for encoding ascii
* lundi 2 d?cembre 2013 19 h 22 CET
            ^

In effect, the header generated is

/**
* org/omg/PortableServer/AdapterActivator.java .
* Generated by the IDL-to-Java compiler (portable), version "3.2"
* from ../../../../src/share/classes/org/omg/PortableServer/poa.idl
* lundi 2 décembre 2013 19 h 22 CET
*/
  which contains the "é" character in the french month of december.

As the compiling command request an ASCII encoding, it fails as "é" is not ASCII.

I would suggest to fix this issue by removing the "-encoding ascii" parameter 
since pao.idl should contains only ascii characters and is not subject to i18n 
problem (except for the idl-to-java translation time in the header comment).
