Simple tests don't show the bug with either orp or gij (it must be
something special about gnu/java/io/encode/Encoder8859_* (the workaround
that Eric posted does work though). But the following Test which fails
with orp seems to succeed with gij.

public class Test
{
  public static void main(String[] args)
  {
    new gnu.java.io.encode.Encoder8859_1(null);
  }
}

A quick look in interpret.cc and resolve.cc also seems to suggest to me
that gij is doing the correct thing.
