From bug report: "Proposal has been made to remove "native2ascii"
tool from JDK9.
It was identified that JDK9 uses "native2ascii" itself to convert
Japanese nroff man pages to various encodings (Linux: UTF-8, Solaris:
UTF-8, PCK/SJIS) from eucJP source. [...] Since the supported Solaris
and Linux OS releases now support UTF-8 locales by default, we should
just deliver UTF-8 encoded nroff man pages and eliminate the
conversion process. "
Michael Fang has supplied a patch that converts the man pages to
UTF8. My fix here will need that patch applied to the jdk repo to
work. I'll not supply it in the webrev though, it's large and hardly
readable. It is attached to the bug report.
Note that the removal of the sed expression is safe since the VERSION
tag is long gone.

The build change looks good to me. Thanks for doing this.
