XMLRPC charset

Hello,

XMLRPC library's default charset is us-ascii,
because 3.1 Text/xml Registration in RFC3023:
>      Conformant with [RFC2046], if a text/xml entity is received with
>      the charset parameter omitted, MIME processors and XML processors
>      MUST use the default charset value of "us-ascii"[ASCII].


In XML 1.0 <http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-xml-20040204/#charencoding>
> All XML processors MUST be able to read entities in both
> the UTF-8 and UTF-16 encodings.
, then I think that default charset should be utf-8.
