Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but if omit-xml-declaration="yes", then the 
parser that reads in your outputted XML will think it is UTF-8?  If you want 
it to think it is ISO-8859-1 (which it is), then you have to output the XML 
declaration, because the <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> is where 
the parser figures out which encoding to use.

My suggestion is to try omit-xml-declaration="no".  See if that works.  Also 
make sure that you have a proper XML declaration in your source XML and your 
stylesheet.
