Currently the default charset for RDoc HTML output is UTF-8.  I don't  
think any conversion is performed.

RDoc itself seems to work correctly now.  I removed .ext/rdoc before  
make install:

$ ruby19 -v
ruby 1.9.1 (2008-12-23 patchlevel-5000 trunk 20922) [i386-darwin9.6.0]
$ ri19 File.open
--------------------------------------------------------------- IO::open
      IO.open(fd, mode_string="r" [, opt] )               => io
      IO.open(fd, mode_string="r" [, opt] ) {|io| block } => obj
[...]

I have attached a patch for RDoc and RubyGems:

I think it would be very disruptive to fix this for 1.9.1.  I would  
rather fix this in RDoc and import a newer version of RDoc at a future  
date.

I am looking into this problem now.
