I did not (yet) try but I do not believe this:

  It looks like the Python "single element tuple" caveat, maybe,
  somewhere in your application code.

Try "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8">".
This XML declatation should be the default, but Zope's XML-RPC library
might use "iso-8859-1" as default encoding.
