Comment 2 Daniel Veillard 2010-11-03 18:28:25 UTC 
Okay, I can reproduce this

paphio:~/XML -> xmllint test.xml
encoding error : output conversion failed due to conv error, bytes 0xC5 0x00 0x78 0x6D
I/O error : encoder error
paphio:~/XML -> xmllint --version
xmllint: using libxml version 20707-GITv2.7.7-25-ge306260
   compiled with: Threads Tree Output Push Reader Patterns Writer SAXv1 FTP HTTP DTDValid HTML Legacy C14N Catalog XPath XPointer XInclude ISO8859X Unicode Regexps Automata Expr Schemas Schematron Modules Debug MemDebug RunDebug Zlib 
paphio:~/XML ->

but I think the patch is wrong, it actually looses characters silently, we
should not do this ... ever.
But it's a serious error so I chased it, it's actually a couple of lines
fix, which is now commited in git head,

 thanks for the report and the patch attempt !
