I think this is because in 2.1.2 we changed the default encoding 
for XML files that don't specify an encoding to be UTF-8, which 
is what the standard for XML says.

Now the question is whether we should really be following the 
standard or not... are there others out there who have an 
opinion?

Thanks,
