No, it shouldn't be a dup of bug 114078 - this one even on JA system, the Yen
sign will not be showing correctly, but that bug only happens on non-native system.

Anyone tried the new version of JRE, 1.4.0_01? I can't see "?" being displayed.

Comment 7

[Yuying Long]

I tried it on both jre1.4.0_01 and 1.3.1_02.

The currency symbols  can not be displayed properly, depends on OS lnaguage,
some times it display as "?" some times it display like a "garbled circle".
