I added test data via a shell script:

!/bin/sh

BLOG_URL=http://localhost:8983/solandra/update?commit=true TESTDATA=test_data.xml

curl $BLOG_URL --data-binary @$TESTDATA -H 'Content-type:text/xml; charset=utf-8'

echo "Posted $TESTDATA to $BLOG_URL"

It doesn't seem like the encoding is the problem.
