On some of my smoker systems with non-English locale the test suite is failing:

t/generated/2.0-generated.xml:19: parser error : Input is not proper UTF-8, indicate encoding !
Bytes: 0xE4 0x72 0x20 0x31
      <pubDate>Di 31 M�r 18:10:17 2026 GMT</pubDate>
                      ^

#   Failed test 'Yadda yadda yadda - R&D;'
#   at t/2.0-generate.t line 142.
#          got: 'Yadda yadda yadda - RD;'
#     expected: 'Yadda yadda yadda - R&D;'
# Looks like you failed 1 test of 29.
t/2.0-generate.t ............... 
Dubious, test returned 1 (wstat 256, 0x100)
Failed 1/29 subtests 
	(less 2 skipped subtests: 26 okay)

The invalid character here is a German umlaut-a encoded in iso-8859-1, so it's not valid utf-8.
(Tomorrow the test suite will again pass as the month can be written in pure ASCII: "Apr")
