[issue23650] xml.etree.ElementTreee.write can't parse its own output

[Ned Deily]

Ned Deily added the comment:

This is a duplicate of Issue5166.  Note that in your example, you are not serializing valid XML 1.0: \x1b (ESC) is not a valid XML character, it has to be escaped and, as the discussion in Issue5166 points out, etree does not automatically do that for you.
