Hello.

Playing with yaws/haxe I've found a bug: if is_string() returns `unicode',
string gets encoded into utf8; later, in encode_string() the number of
bytes in utf8-encoded string is counted, while the number of unicode
symbols is expected by haXe. So, in case of an unicode string, inverse
transformation (xmerl_ucs:from_utf8()) is needed before computing the length
of the string.

Attached is a patch fixing the bug.

Hi,

I tried checkin in the fix but ran into CVS problems. I'll have to
wait until they are resolved.

Best,
Yariv
