encoding-confusion

Hi,

i ran into a little problem:
my xml-files and my whole Linux-System is using Unicode-Settings, which
is "A Good Thing(tm)".
When i'm setting the
LANG-enviroment from de_DE.UTF-8 to de_DE  <- thats iso-8859-1
all widgets, which:
 - contain Umlaute (ä, ö, ü)
 AND
 - are created with the SwiXML-Engine
are displayed in the typical ISOtriesUNICODE-character garbage.
All "Umlaut"-widgets created in .java-files are not affected.
This is not a good thing, since it would make the whole thing
system-dependend. 

What's the catch? 
I'v attached a sample xml-file.

Thx

P.S.: I noticed the same behavior under Window2000.
