The only thing that I can think of is that your javac doesn't support
the -encoding switch. Is it possible that you have an old copy of tools.jar
somewhere? Jasper writes out the .java file in UTF8 encoding, which is then
passed to javac to compile to a .class. If javac is trying to read the
.java file as iso-latin-1, then you'd see something like you're reporting.
You might try using Jikes.
Tomcat's JspWriter doesn't do any encoding. It just (eventually) passes the
chars to the result of calling response.getWriter. This means that the
encoding should the same as for a servlet (which you've reported does work).
I can't personally reproduce your problem on either Windows or Solaris, so I
don't know how much more help I can be. The main files involved are
src/facade22/org/apache/tomcat/facade/JspInterceptor.java and
src/share/org/apache/jasper/compiler/Compiler.java, if you want to dig
through the code.
