Summary: Unicode xmlcharrefreplace produces backslash not xml style.
Initial Comment:
In Python 2.4.2 and 2.5, and maybe other versions too, the unicode string
encoder for producing xml style unicode output (example, © for copyright
symbol) produces the wrong style -- it produces backslash encoding (\xa9 for
same copyright unicode character).
Example at Python shell:
u'\u2122'.encode('unicode_escape','xmlcharrefreplace')
should produce: ™
but it produces \u2122
The same happens when it is used in a program. The print output of the encoded
unicode contains backslash encodings as though the method 'backslashreplace'
had been used.
