Hi,
running livedocs + hebrew+ php5, i found out that for some 8bit, not 'ISO-8859-1' encoding, libxml it just mark all the 80 - FF range with question marks.
the windows-1255 charset is one that affected by this behavior so we have to mark all the hebrew xml files as ISO-8859-1, but the old build system doesn't like it. we have here more incompatibility of the old and new systems.
Since the RTL stuff is not working in the old build system anyway, it would probably be better to exclude Hebrew from that build system and so encoding and stuff would not be problematic. Hebrew can also be one of the good test targets for livedocs :)
another translations projects may want to use this test script to look for potential conflicts (php5+libxml only):
Could you please commit this script to phpdoc/scripts so others can use it later if needed?
