[xml] Fwd: continued problem with Python, libxml2 and entities

[Mike Kneller <ukchill mac com>]

It turns out that the same transform run through xsltproc gives the correct result. 

What I am expecting to see is: 
<?xml version="1.0"?> 
<content> 
        <p>©2007</p> 
</content> 

When I run it using test.py, the result I get is: 
<?xml version="1.0"?> 
<content> 
        <p>2007</p> 
</content> 

So, as the xsltproc version gives me the correct result, I guess I can eliminate the library as the source of the problem, instead it would appear to be a problem with my Python code, or the Python wrapper. 

Any ideas?
