Ok, this was actually a libofx bug (All XML files were treated as CP1252). =
 The =

bug is fixed in git.

Unfortunately, opensp has a bug with XML encoding detection, which may caus=

serious problems if the encoding isn't UTF-8 or US-ASCII.  The spec specifi=

that only those two should be used, so this should not cause any actual =

regressions. =


Unless libofx does it's own parsing of the xml header (which would be somew=

are likely to surface, so I may end up implementing it anyway.
