Well, my gut feeling would certainly be to try and force the encoding
yourself through adding a META tag, rather than let your processor decide.
Since the HTML Rec requires one there anyway, I'd guess it's up to the
processor to choose one (so implementation-dependent)...

The encoding attribute specifies the preferred encoding to be used. If there
is a HEAD element, then the html output method should add a META element
immediately after the start-tag of the HEAD element specifying the character
encoding actually used.

Hope this helps!
