Why should the output be UTF-8? It should ideally be whatever character set your console uses.

Or is there a use for rere other than seeing the pretty printed content of a template?

I think this is a quite old change in behavior. Version 2.69 added removal of html tags (with HTML::Strip) and I presume this also removes the XML markup. 2.69 is from 2012.

There could be an option to not strip out the html (in the easiest implementation this would then also not decode html entities). Alternatively the X-Ref attribute could be special-cased to not strip the html in the value.
