Here is the main problem regarding this bug.  If you want to enter data
into your xml document that is encoding in iso-8859-0 because the
encoding on your document is set to iso-8859-0, it screws up because
the internal encoding is always set to utf-8.  This is fine, but the
input encoding is also always set to utf-8...if you want to enter
iso8859-1 data into the tree, there should be an option to set the
input encoding so that it converts it appropriately to utf-8. 
Otherwise, the user is forced to do
iconv('ISO-8859-1', 'UTF-8', 'string') each time he/she wants to enter
data into the document.  I believe you should be able to set the
expected input encoding and have it automatically convert it.

Properties of Dom Objects are read-only, only created at generation
time and therefore not really reliable...

The internal encoding of domxml is always utf8, could you please give a
short selfcontained example for the "add nodes from one document to
another"-problem?

But you gave the right solution, for having another encoding at
output.

I have found problems using documents with different encodings. 

When I add nodes from one document to another
($docAItem->add_child($docB->root()), if the flag encoding property of
the target document has not been set  when initially creating the
document (using functions xmldoc, xmldocfile, etc., not setting the
property manually with '$doc->encoding = "utf8"') then the encoding
translation is not done. 
A possible workaround for this situation is to force the flag using
dumpmem with the optional encoding flag set. ie:
$docA = domxml_new_xmldoc(“1.0”);
$docARoot = $docA->add_root(“root”);
$docA = xmldoc($docA->dumpmem(0, “UTF8”));

It looks like the encoding property of the DomDocument object can’t be
set manually.
Also, when creating a new DomDocument from scratch (with
domxml_new_xmldoc) the encoding property should be set to UTF8 as a
default, or allow a second optional parameter in the xmldoc function to
set the proper encoding.
