bug#269: 23.0.60; [nxml] BOM and utf-8

[Patrick Drechsler]

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

Hi,

is the attached xml file (simple.xml) really invalid (as indicated by
nxhtml) or is this a bug in nxhtml?

describe-char on the first symbol gives (I replaced the BOM part with
XXX):

,----
|         character: XXX (65279, #o177377, #xfeff)
| preferred charset: unicode (Unicode (ISO10646))
|        code point: 0xFEFF
|            syntax: w  which means: word
|       buffer code: #xEF #xBB #xBF
|         file code: #xEF #xBB #xBF (encoded by coding system utf-8-unix)
|           display: no font available
| 
| Character code properties are not shown: customize what to show
| 
| There is an overlay here:
|  From 1 to 2
|   category             rng-error
|   help-echo            "Missing space after name"
|   priority             1
| 
| 
| There are text properties here:
|   auto-composed        t
|   fontified            t
`----

describe-current-coding-system also looks correct:

,----
| Coding system for saving this buffer:
|   U -- utf-8-unix (alias: mule-utf-8-unix)
`----

Regards,

Patrick
