No, IE does not reject perfectly valid character.

The problem only happens if one uses IE as xml parser.
The habbit of using IE as XML paraser is just wrong. First IE does not XML
validate (dtd or schema). IE just display content and data, the fact that
IE was build in to parse XML is a side effect. One should always parser the
data before pushing to IE to display.

So, if you parse the XML and display it in an IE <div> or <textarea> all
character will be displayed as long as IE take it.
