[xml] xsltproc --stringparam and national chars

[Jens Askengren <jens askengren tim se>]

Hello transformers!

I am trying to set stylesheet parameters containing national characters
using the --stringparam of xsltproc. This fails, and the chars are
replaced with space.

My locale is sv_SE.iso-8859-1,the stylesheet and the doc is also encoded
using iso-8859-1.

I have also tried using #&149;-style encoding of the offending chars,
but no entity expansion is done.

Using utf-8 however produces the correct result. It took some time to
figure out, so I'd appreciate if somone would add this info to the
man-page.

Thanks
