UTF-8 in W3C's validator

[Robert Downes]

The validator gives me this complaint along these lines when I feed it a
custom XML document:

Stopped at line 715 because a character was found that is not part of
us-ascii (i.e. not part of the specified character encoding). Please
check the encoding you have specified.

But I've specified UTF-8 in the XML declaration, and the document
appears fine in Mozilla. Why is the Validator choking on it?

The characters in question are simply Spanish characters as found in
someone's surname.
