This is somehow a bug *in* PEAR.
Previous PHP versions have considered the default encoding as ISO
8859-xx (which? :) as default and thus the parser did not complain.
Wrong enconding version or no encoding actually raise errors. The
default being utf8 and have little to do with iso-8859.
For that matter, it is a PEAR problem if not bug for some
package.xml, as bad entities or wrong encoding is used.
Using Unicode is a bit insane right now. Unless we consider HEAD as
the target.
