It looks like Excelsior doesn't know some of the character sets that are
supported by Oracle Java, and Jaybird doesn't handle this case well.

The workaround is to edit the isc_encodings.properties and comment out
(by adding a #) the character sets you don't need or that are not
supported (eg change the line "EUCJ_0208 EUC_JP" to "#EUCJ_0208 EUC_JP").

You might also want to check if Excelsior has an extension library for
character sets (eg i18n.jar (like old Java versions had) or charsets.jar
(like current Java versions)).
