Im trying to fetch a string via XML-RPC from Zope (into Flash) and some 
characters are being encoded in a way that isnt understandable by my client 
library. 

I tried using python to do the same task, and then realized that the problem 
may be that Zope isnt setting the right encoding when spitting out XML 
responses.

Attached is the log of my failed test.

PS: JFD, i tried replacing Zope's xmlrpclib with python2.2 one and got the 
same error (altough a different traceback).
