Thanks for the bug report.  I'm curious about two things:

 1.  Is this bug reproducible with xerces25?  If not, would it be
     possible to switch to xerces25?  xerces26 should also be coming
     out shortly.

 2.  Does this happen if you use the icu version of xerces, available
     in the libxercesicu23 (or libxercesicu25) package?  If these
     work, are they a possibility?

It's possible that the native transcoder supports fewer encodings, but
we found a handful of other problems that went away when we switched
from gnu to native.

If this problem is no longer present with xerces25 or it is not
present with the icu version of xerces, my inclination is to close
this without taking any action.  Would that be okay with you?  Thanks!
