Hi there,

I've been trying ParsedXML with Zope 2.5.0 beta 3 in the hopes the crashbug
would go away. I've also downloaded the binary release instead of building
from sources myself.

Unfortunately in this setup I am unable to upload XML documents that I could
before, including the 'Shakespeare test'.

Instead, I get a variety of unicode errors from Expat and no matter
how I change the sources to encode and decode and unicode, I can't get the
upload to work anymore. So something must've changed, either in Python or
in Zope, that causes this.

When running the unittests I also get massive failures where there were
none of this kind before, most seem to be along the lines of:

UnicodeError: UTF-8 decoding error: unexpected code byte

All of this did still work with Zope 2.5.0beta2.
 
I'd really like a unicode/Expat expert to take a look at this. Perhaps
Fred can. :)

Regards,

Martijn
