Saxon doesn't read the any characters directly it (like all XSLT
systems) uses an XML parser. The list of characters allowed in XML is
rather large. No characters throw errors (otherwise, by definition, they
are not characters) but some unicode code points do not correspond to
characters, in particular all the ascii control range below position 32
(space) except for 9 10 and 13.
