This might be a Solr bug. Solr should be able to accept XML in any of the required encodings (ASCII, Latin 1, UTF-8, and UTF-16). Getting XML content types exactly right is tricky, see RFC 3023.
Right now Solr pays attention to Content-type in the HTTP-headers (it lets the servlet container handle charset conversions), and ignores any charset declaration in the XML itself. What I think might be ideal: I f there is a charset definition, then let the servlet handle it by requesting a Writer. If there isn't a charset definition, request a byte-oriented InputStream from the container and let the XML parser try and figure out the encoding. -Yonik
