[OpenLayers-Users] Re: WFS GetFeature w/French char in response = null ptr in IE

[Michael]

Well, I was hoping to suggest the easy path of fixing the issue before 
it ever hit OpenLayers

However from your clarification it seems that the issue is that you 
cannot correctly set the Content-Type.

In a parallel instance (entirely unrelated) I simply overrode the native 
OL function with one that did it MY way.  Later submitted it as a bug 
fix.  Perhaps that might be your best path.  In this case, work your way 
through the code to see where they set that value, and fix it.  You 
might even find that someone built in that feature and did not document it!
