 In several places in the WordPress source, there are XHTML headers in
 which the <title> tag comes before the encoding meta tag.

 Since the text in the title can be UTF-8 text, the encoding should be
 specified before it. Otherwise, in certain cases, the user agent needs to
 guess the correct encoding for the title.

 I enclosed a patch for everywhere I could find where the encoding
 declaration comes after the <title> tag. I tested it with 2.4-bleeding
 (r6475).
