Ahhh, did some digging and figured it out!
Apple OSX's java interpreter's default charset is MacRoman
I modified bin/ant to add -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 as an argument for the java
interpreter, and it works fine now:
hitman@bigdog ~/t/t/apache-ant-1.8.2$ bin/ant foo2
Buildfile: /Users/hitman/t/t/apache-ant-1.8.2/build.xml
foo2:
[echo] [Test ế]
BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 0 seconds
thanks for all the help, all!
thanks,
rob
