Subject: Encoding mismatch can crash sax parser
A UTF-8 document that has the encoding declaration set to utf-16 can crash
the sax parser. The autosense code works correctly but there is a bug in
XMLReader::setEncoding. fEncodingStr is prematurely deleted and nulled out
before the code realizes that it contains the correct value. Later in
XMLTransService::makeNewTranscoderFor, the zeroed fEncodingStr is
dereferenced causing an access violation.
The following document demonstrates the problem:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<document/>
I believe the fix is to wait until after we pass the "return false" cases in
XMLReader::setEncoding to delete fEncodingStr. I am testing it now.
