OK, thanks... does the XML parser then take care of it automatically,

Correct. The parser does the conversion to native Perl Unicode.
Take a look at r262 for what happened to from_to().
The string objects for author and comment are actually UTF-8 but without
the Perl internal markers to make them recognized as such, so the
Encode::decode_utf8 sort of does for UTF-8 encoding what a C++ placement
new does for object allocation. It says "this is already UTF-8, so set the
internal bit to recognize that". This prevents double-encoding when the
comment and author are written to the dump file.
