[Classpath] Compile Errors

[arenn]

I am trying to compile and am getting errors about string literals in
/gnu/java/locale/LocaleInformation_de.java.  A sample:

Found 9 semantic errors compiling 
"../gnu/java/locale/LocaleInformation_de.java":

    52.   
"&ae,\u00/$&Ae,\u00-$&oe,\u000&&Oe,\u00.&&ue,\u000,&Ue,\u00.,&ss,\u00./";
          <----------------------------------->
*** Error: The value of this "String" literal is invalid. Perhaps it contains a 
bad escape sequence?


    57. private static final String[] months = { "Januar", "Februar", 
"M\u00/$rz", 
                                                                      <---->

This is with Jikes 1.12.  Is there a special character encoding that
needs to be used with this?  Perhaps we should escape sequence anything
that isn't ASCII as I think these characters are valid Latin-1.
