please bear in mind that any string communicated to/from gdome2 must
be/is encoded in utf8. This is the same choice done for libxml2. I
suspect you've created a string of ISO8859-1 characters, and since this
is an 8-bit encoding you've just passed that string to gdome2.  

If my guess is wrong try to post a small code fragment that we can run.

Cheers.
