Internal Servlet Error+core dump: Not an ISO 8859_1 character

Using tomcat 3.2.2 in a sparc solaris 8 environment, I have
no problems at all. But, when I move the same data and
servlet to either MacOS X or intel solaris 8, still with
tomcat 3.2.2, I get the exception noted below whenever
I attempt to write accented characters. At times it even
makes the jvm core dump.

I'm using jvm 1.3.1-b24 on solaris on both sparc/intel.
I'm using jvm 1.3.0 on MacOS X out-of-the-box.

Ideas anyone?
