Comment:

 update: SP 1.1.3 works because it improperly detects UTF-8 feeds as
 ISO-8859-1.


 {{{
                                 // Change the encoding to UTF-8 (as we
 always use UTF-8 internally)
                                 if ($utf8_data =
 SimplePie_Misc::change_encoding($data, $encoding, 'UTF-8'))
                                 {
                                         // Create new parser
                                         $parser =& new
 $this->parser_class();

                                         // If it's parsed fine
                                         if ($parser->parse($utf8_data,
 'UTF-8'))
                                         {
                                                 var_dump($encoding);die;
 // ISO-8859-1

 }}}

 Placing the same code in SP 1.2 never dies (it fails to create a parser in
 the first place).
