Summary:  java.text.SimpleDateFormat treats letters other than A-Z,a-z as 
pattern letters

Original Submission:  Sun's API document syas, "Within date and time pattern 
strings, unquoted

letters from 'A' to 'Z' and from 'a' to 'z' are interpreted as pattern

letters."  But Classpath's implementation seems to be doing

'if (Character.isLetter(thisChar))'.  As a result, for example,

Japanese characters are unexpectedly treated as invalid pattern letters.
