Removed log message so now the Log files will not report if the test passes, but will report if the test fails, as a failure is a good indication that the database is non UTF8. (pass is not and indication it is UTF8)

Reopening ro remove erronious Ok statement.

What type is your XML field in the CONTENT_RESOURCE table ?
It's a LONG (probably a bad type for it to be) which I seem to
remember is a binary type even though it's just base64 text
that's being stored there.
I think my original point here is that a "UTF-8 check" should
NOT be reporting "OK" on a known, non-UTF8 database. This is
just totally misleading.

Per:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.cms.sakai.devel/16245
Sakai now includes a check "to ensure that your database and the connection to the database stored UTF-8 data correctly with no corruption."
However, on a US7ASCII database, the connection passes:
