This error turned out not to be related to java versions, but it was
pretty obscure (for me).  Someone else (our local InstallAnywhere
expert) identified and fixed this problem for me; I'm just posting
this "for the record" in case it helps anyone else.

My ~/.bashrc file contains these lines:

   TITLEBAR='\[\033]0;\u@\h:\w\007\]'
   PS1="$TITLEBAR"'\n\u@\h : $PWD \$ '

so that the tops of my xterm windows show 'adam <at> computer:~/bin' for
example.  The value of TITLEBAR was getting picked up by
InstallAnywhere and recorded in the system properties somewhere in
/tmp, then read later as an invalid encoded Unicode character.  (I
still don't understand why it had worked on my other computer, which
uses the same thing.)

Anyway, he fixed it by running the installer this way:

  TITLEBAR=   sh install_progete.bin

Thanks,
Adam
