UTF-8 French character causes exception

[Dave Oxley]

Sorry if this message has already come through to this list. I couldn't see it, so I'm now subscribed and resending!

Using Xalan 2.5.2 I get the following exception when trying to transform 
a DOM with an '�'. The same thing works with Xalan 2.5.1. Is this a 
known problem or something I've done?

Cheers.
Dave.
