>Description:
Currently the compiler accepts invalid UTF-8 sequences
when reading a file.  Instead we ought to diagnose
such sequences as errors.

Try compiling this Latin-1 encoded program with
--encoding=UTF-8 to see the problem:

public class Hello
{
  public static void main ( String []arguments)
  {
    System.out.println ("Liberté, égalité, fraternité !");
  }
}
