 What symbol ? This is probably equivalent to the &#160;

  Where ? how ? by whom ? Pointer please ! If someone think there is a bug
in libxslt, he better state it clearly and give a full example, you
included ! Have you read http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/bugs.html ? If yes
why didn't you follow the guidelines 
  "send the command showing the error as well as the input and stylesheet"

 Your report is terribly unprecise. You "can" or you "did" ask for 
ISO-8859-1 ? 
 You don't even tell what kind of output you asked for, xml ? html ? text ?
I doubt it's a bug, on the other hand you sound very confused. And your
report contains no way to check what you're trying to argue about, nor
even to try to get an idea of what exactly is the problem. As a result
we are both loosing time :-( . Follow the guidelines, they are there for
good reasons !
