I've modified dumpMetadata to: a) pass all strings through utf8String; and b) allow you to optionally specify the encoding that was in use when the RPM was constructed.
Comments on attached patch please. I've cc'd yum-devel since I plan to eventually patch yum to respect the encoding provided (if any) to createrepo. Original message (for yum-devel readers) here:

Questions:- Is it insane to attempt to respect a non-utf8 encoding with yum since RPMs don't natively specify the encoding in which they were constructed?
- Is the proposed extension to the rpm-metadata xml schema acceptable? Thanks, j.
