latin1 characters in RIS entries not converted to UTF-8 by runbib when creating .bib.xml bibliography file

Hi.

I've been using the debian packages and generated bibliography for XML
docbook using runbib.

I have some french papers with accents in the title, which break the
bibliography parsing.

The RIS file contained latin1 characters, which are output as such in
queries in refdb mode in emacs.

The .bib.xml output from runbib contains latin1 accentuated characters
instead of UTF-8, for the titles in the bibliography elements, hence
breaking the xsltproc done on the DocBook XML file afterwards, although
I invoke runbib with option "-E utf8"...

Maybe I'm missing something here...

Anyway, I manage to convert it to UTF-8 with an additional iconv filter
in the Makefile... but I'd think of a better solution managed by
runbib...

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
