I may misremember, but I think there's an option in XMLC to switch between 
single and double quotes for quoting attribute values (both are legal), and 
if you're using single quotes for attribute values, you get problems when not 
escaping them.

That said, its probably sensible to escape only the "problematic" quotes (i.e. 
the ones that are used for quoting attributes on that particular output) and 
leave the other variety unescaped...
