\ud800 is an unpaired surrogate which is illegal in the UTF-16 representation used by jython. It is legal in cpythons UCS-2, but does not actually represent any real world characters. It never appears in the real world, only in cpython-specific tests which are broken outside of the cpython world. Expecting these tests to pass on any platform that does not use UCS-2 is a broken expectation.
