It looks like XmlStreamReader is not correctly handling several encodings
in Commons IO 2.14.0 that previously worked in version 2.13.0.

val xml = "Ç"
val stream = xml.byteInputStream(Charset.forName("437"))

Determining what encoding to use when reading XML from a byte stream
is the purpose of XmlStreamReader. From its documentatio
