The gstat and other geom applications basically use expat to parse
the equivalent of "sysctl -b kern.geom.confxml". This output does
not have an encoding specified, so expat accepts only ASCII.  As
such, bytes greater than 0x7e must be encoded.

http://skew.org/xml/tutorial/
http://www.w3.org/TR/1998/REC-xml-19980210

Attached is a patch which attempts to output valid XML for all cases
(any value between 0x00 and 0xff). One issue is that many bytes
between 0x00 and 0x1f have no valid XML coding, so this patch
replaces them with '?' (such things should not appear in geom names,
though).

Also, it seems that expat is attempting to convert bytes from
iso-8859-1 into utf8 characters, so gstat and glabel output may
look weird.
