After staring at the libxml2 for a while I’ve worked out what is going on.  The
change in question causes libxml2 to decode the first chunk of data we pass it
in two goes.  It first decodes enough data to try and parse the XML
declaration.  Once it has parsed this it then decodes the rest of the chunk and
continues parsing.  Since it is decoded in two parts the encoding switch that
happens as a result of parsing the XML declaration’s encoding name leads
libxml2 to decode the remaining data in the chunk with the wrong encoding.
