+I cannot say my test is evident enough, but I think we cannot get 
+expected result using XslTransform.Transform (uri, argumentList, 
+outputTextWriter).
+
+This overrode of .Transform() does not use UTF-8 encoding, but uses 
+the actual TextWriter's encoding. 
+http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-
+us/cpguide/html/cpconXSLTTransformationsWithXslTransformClass.asp
+
+So if you use Console.Out for the third argument of this method, it 
+will use environment-dependent encoding (for example, it is shift_jis 
+for me, and the transformation fails because System.Text.Encoding for 
+shift_jis cannot convert that input UTF-8 string to shift_jis string. 
+I found this fact with this test code:
+
+using System;
+using System.IO;
+using System.Text;
+
+public class Test
+{
+	public static void Main ()
+	{
+		Console.WriteLine (
+			new StreamReader ("encoding.xml", 
+Encoding.UTF8).ReadToEnd ());
+	}
+}
+
+So the workaround for this is not to use Console.Out for XSLT output 
+(specifying output file argument or Stream will work).
