I wonder if your locale setting is affecting this?
If so you can probably fix this by telling emacs to use the
us-ascii-unix coding system, at least for .java files in Classpath.

Did we ever decide on what encoding we are using for the core of
Classpath?  IMO, the most reasonable choices are either UTF-8, or
ASCII.  This should be documented in hacking.texinfo ... which btw I
notice is quite out of date.
