I'm sorry. I did cry for the wolf too early. The error must be in my JVM.
To confirm this I just moved the whole CharData and Char into an own
class and let the tests run on another JVM using this class instead of
Character.
There's no error there.
I hope I didn't cause too much panic with this....
