Knut Anders Hatlen commented on DERBY-4999:
-------------------------------------------

I did a binary search through the svn history and found that the docs build 
started failing in the C locale after this commit:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
r1023023 | rhillegas | 2010-10-15 19:13:54 +0200 (Fri, 15 Oct 2010) | 1 line

DERBY-4851: parameterize copyright years in the user docs so that the master 
release script can replace them with the current year when we build release 
distributions.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

However, this commit didn't change any of the byte order markers that the 
current build is complaining about. And even before this commit, when building 
with a non-UTF-8 locale, all non-ascii characters were displayed as question 
marks, so it didn't really work before that either. (Which is probably why 
http://db.apache.org/derby/manuals/dita.html says that we should use a UTF-8 
locale when building the docs.)

> The failure happens when processing the Brazilian Portuguese translation of 
> the reference manual.
> I'm able to reproduce the failure by building the pt_BR.html ant target with 
> locale set to C. It builds fine if the locale is en_US.UTF-8.
