Well libxml expect it's internal content to be encoded in UTF8.
The string passed to xmlEncodeEntitiesReentrant should first be
converted to UTF8. You can use isolat1ToUTF8() for this (it's public
in the encoding.c module but it seems I forgot to add it to the
encoding.h module, will do).

I tried to detail how and why libxml handle internationalization
issues:
