Locale.getDefault bug in JDK 1.7

I noticed that Locale.getDefault is returning the wrong locale in JDK
1.7. It used to work fine. It is not returning USA even though my OS
is configured as Canada.

Here is an SSCCE

        // Four ways to get a Locale

        Locale defaultLocale = Locale.getDefault(); // browser/JVM

        showLocale( "D E F A U L T", defaultLocale );

        Locale specifiedLocale = new Locale( "en", "US" ); //
language/country
        showLocale( "N E W E N U S", specifiedLocale );

        Locale localeConstant = Locale.CANADA_FRENCH; // static final

        showLocale( "C A N A D A _ F R E N C H", localeConstant );

        // Locale serverLocale = request.getLocale(); // in a servlet
to get remote user's locale
        }
    }

D E F A U L T
display:English (United States)
country:US
ISO3:USA
display country:United States
language:en
display language:English

N E W E N U S
display:English (United States)
country:US
ISO3:USA
display country:United States
language:en
display language:English

C A N A D A _ F R E N C H
display:French (Canada)
country:CA
ISO3:CAN
display country:Canada
language:fr
display language:French

I wonder if someone with a non-US locale could try this. I would like
to know if the problem is with my copy of Windows 7 64-bit or with my
copy of the JDK.
