No character should ever be tranformed to "?" except "?". There are some
tools which display characters they don't know as "?", but that isn't a
Xalan issue.
If you've got a specific testcase, check the actual bytes in the file. If
you can confirm that something is really being transformed into "?" that
shouldn't be, submit a bug report.
