Well, it *is* for me, since my native language is greek and unfortunately if I want to create an application, I have to do a custom i18n, so that I would be able to display anything in my own language.

Let's take an example:

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Γεια!");
        UIApplication.main(args, null, Main.class);
    }


and in ObjC

+ (void) main___java_lang_String_ARRAYTYPE :(XMLVMArray*)n1
{
    XMLVMElem _r0;
    XMLVMElem _r1;
    XMLVMElem _r2;
    _r2.o = n1;
    _r0.o = JAVA_NULL;
    _r1.o = JAVA_NULL;
    [_r2.o retain];
    _r0.o = [java_lang_System _GET_out];
    [_r0.o retain];
    _r1.o = @"\1623\1665\1671\1661!";
    [((java_io_PrintStream*) _r0.o) println___java_lang_String:_r1.o];
    [_r0.o release];
    _r0.o = JAVA_NULL;
    [_r1.o release];
    _r1.o = [my_food_Main getClass__];
    [org_xmlvm_iphone_UIApplication main___java_lang_String_ARRAYTYPE_java_lang_Class_java_lang_Class:_r2.o:_r0.o:_r1.o];
    [_r0.o release];
    [_r1.o release];
    [_r2.o release];
    return;
}

which prints 
r3v5w1v1!
instead of something like
Γεια!
