I'm no XML expert, but this doesn't look right. An e acute is &eacute;
whereas &amp;eacute is &eacute. It's not "safer", it's different.
IMHO the double encoding is in the XML data itself.

Also, saying &eacute; et al are "latin1" entities doesn't make
sense to me, since entities are a way to encode non ASCII characters
into an ASCII representation-- this is orthogonal to the XML document's
encoding or the XML parser's output encoding.
