Looking at package-info.java I can see that the generated file is language and OS dependent, in my case it contains German comments and is encoded in windows-1252 instead of UTF-8:

//
// Diese Datei wurde mit der JavaTM Architecture for XML Binding(JAXB) Reference Implementation, v2.2.6 generiert 
// Siehe <a href="http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxb">http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxb</a> 
// Änderungen an dieser Datei gehen bei einer Neukompilierung des Quellschemas verloren.

//

@javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlSchema(namespace = "http://doclitwrapped.proxy.test.org")
package org.test.proxy.doclitwrapped;

Not sure what the result of the file is used for, but either don't assume its always encoded in UTF-8 or it looks like it helps to not generate any file header comments using the option "-no-header".
