Well after a bit of messing around I figured out the issue. Light complains that Dutch characters don't match Codepage 1252 (default codepage) unless Product/@Codepage is *explicitly* specified as 1252. Strange that it doesn't happen for other languages :/
Anyway, bug lodged with example code - hope this helps anyone who comes across a similar issue in the future.
