--------------------------------------------------------------------

The problem seems to be caused by the copy and move ant tasks that take a 
filterset or a filterchain. If no encoding is specified in the build script, 
ant assumes the files are encoded using the platform's default encoding when it 
does the filtering. This causes the UTF-8 BOMs to be garbled when the files are 
copied in a non-UTF-8 locale.

See http://ant.apache.org/manual/Tasks/copy.html#encoding for a description of 
the problem.

The attached patch specifies UTF-8 encoding for the copy and move tasks that do 
filtering, which makes it build again in my environment.

As a side effect, this also seems to fix the garbling of non-ascii characters 
that we saw even before the build started failing. So now I'm able to build the 
Japanese manuals in the C locale and get output that looks Japanese to me (the 
question marks are gone).

> The Hudson job that builds the documentation sometimes fails. See these 
> threads on derby-dev:

> 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.
