[Mono-list] XSP special character

Hi all,

I was struggling to get some .aspx test pages going, when I found
out that XSP 0.2 don't seem to be able to handle certain character.
The result I get when including one of these on a .aspx-page is that
the server doesn't seem the answer requests correctly -- the browser
get stuck loading the page, but nothing happens (until the browser
decides to time out).

The characters I've had problems with are the following:

åäöÅÄÖ£¤´¨<>§½

If I include one of these on a .aspx-page, the page stops to function.

A couple of remarks:

1. ` seem to work just fine, while ´ causes problems.
2. Maybe the problems with < and > are related to the HTML-rendering.
3. The first six letters are the special characters of the Swedish
   alphabet.
4. A new tmpXXXXXXXXXX.dll file gets created for each request, although
   the requested file contains one of the above characters. (Still,
   the appropriate response do not get sent to the client.)

Are these problems directly related to the similar ones described
in mono bugs 25913 and 26670 ?
