I think the assumption driving this issue is wrong. All JDK output the
exact same file for a given output, apart from: the comment date, and the order
of files.
The output is very clearly specified in the `Properties` javadoc.

> Briefly, properties files have non-unique representations and there's no
> guarantee two JDKs from different companies and Java versions produce the
> same byte-per-byte serialization. Our current code accounts for property
> order and comments, but not variations in escaping (hex vs. UTF-8), separator
> characters, and insignificant whitespace.
