EVALUATION

I've a standalone testcase for testing the MBCSToSeqUnicode function at:
http://javaweb.us.oracle.com/~cccheung/tests/7169000/MBCSToSeqUnicode.cpp

Input string:
"Outdated Java Runtime Environment"

zh_TW translation is
"??L???????? Java Runtime Environment"

The above unit test output the same string with or without unicode enabled:
"\u00b9L\u00ae\u00c9\u00aa\u00ba Java Runtime Environment" 

Changes is based on the above unit testcase.
