Why is this bug bogus?

It use utf8_encode to encode the data to UTF-8.

The manual says also: "Note: If you want to serialize non-ASCII
characters you have to convert your data to UTF-8 first (see
utf8_encode() and iconv()).".

So the code should be correct?

Please do not submit the same bug more than once. An existing
bug report already describes this very problem. Even if you feel
that your issue is somewhat different, the resolution is likely
to be the same. 

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

See bug #34913.

Description:
------------
umlaut characters in charset utf-8 get not correct en/decoded with
wddx_serialize_value resp. wddx_deserialize.

in php-5 the code with the xml-header and utf-8 encoding returns the
iso-8859-1 chars and not the utf-8 charts - that is a bug too, or?

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
	header( 'Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8' );
	echo '<pre>';
	$original = utf8_encode( 'umlaute: '.chr( 220 ).chr( 228 ).chr( 246
).chr( 223 ) );
	var_dump( $original );
	$wddx = wddx_serialize_value( $original );
	#var_dump( htmlentities( $wddx ) );
	$data = wddx_deserialize( $wddx );
	var_dump(  $data );
	$data = wddx_deserialize( '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"
?>'."\n".$wddx );
	var_dump(  $data );
?>

Expected result:
----------------
string(17) "umlaute: Üäöß"
string(17) "umlaute: Üäöß"
string(17) "umlaute: Üäöß"

Actual result:
--------------
string(17) "umlaute: Üäöß"
string(17) "umlaute: ÿäöÿ"
string(17) "umlaute: ÿäöÿ"
