I think this is not the answer. Your original question was about
1.5.2, and the CVS xmlproc will generate Unicode objects only for
Python 1.6 and later. In 1.5.2, it is supposed to use the integrated
code set converters in xml.parsers.xmlproc.charconv. I don't have
1.5.2 anymore, so I couldn't (yet) investigate why that fails.
