OK, thanks... does the XML parser then take care of it automatically,

Correct. The parser does the conversion to native Perl Unicode.
Take a look at r262 for what happened to from_to().
The string objects for author and comment are actually UTF-8 but
without the Perl internal markers to make them recognized as such, so
the Encode::decode_utf8 sort of does for UTF-8 encoding what a C++
placement new does for object allocation. It says "this is already
UTF-8, so set the internal bit to recognize that". This prevents
double-encoding when the comment and author are written to the dump file.
Gotcha. I'll close ticket 26 and open another to add an encoding switch
to ssphys.
