Please back this last part out:

  (1) The file is now broken.  &auml; is not a valid pre-defined XML entity.
  (2) This is a UTF-8 file.  Do not try to make it ASCII.
  (3) CVS handles UTF-8 files just fine.  UTF-8 is not a `binary' format
      for the purposes of CVS.  Only files with embedded NULs would be a
      problem, and those are not present in UTF-8 by definition.

Cheers,
