Just some additional thoughts on this one:
One of the UTF-8 characters which is incorrectly printed is: e2 80 9c which is
the "left double quotation mark".

Interestingly, when this part of the data finally comes to print_escaped_xml(),
e2 and 9c are unchanged, but 80 has already been escaped as \x80. I have been
unable to figure out where this got 'escaped'!

The patch I have submitted is (as I have mentioned) a workaround to prevent
non-printable characters from getting into the PDML file. However, this
probably needs more investigation.
