By specication, if there is no encoding specified
in xsl:output (or if the whole element is omitted),
the encoding is UTF-8.
Saxon defaults to UTF-8. If the result is in another
encoding, check included and imported stylesheets
for xsl:output declarations, they count too.

There are additional caveats when using MSXML from
scripts, the result may be written to a string and
output later in some arbitrary encoding not under
the control of MSXML itself.
