bytea isn't "treated" any different than other data types. You just
have to take care in the client that you escape every byte greater than
127. The same option is available to you in xml, if you escape all
suspicious characters using entities. Then, the encoding declaration
is immaterial anyway. (Unless you allow UTF-16 into the picture, but
let's say we exclude that implicitly.)
