Firefox 6 seems to ignore the encoding declaration in the xml prolog. Setting a content-type meta tag should fix this (or setting the encoding in the http headers).

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>

That is because text/html content is not actually parsed as XML.
