The difference is that if the test uses golden data for EN locale only while the tested tool like javac supports more than one locale for some specific output message then the test should check that specific localized message.

Look like you use one of ja or zh_CN locales since only for these locales there are translations, the test should take it into account. It is not strictly correct to run add "-Duser.language=en -Duser.country=US" to it to fix such issues.
