I'm not sure it matters.  I tend to index things all at once and use a
metaname to limit to a section.

But note that if you are using the libxml2 parser it will try to encode
everything into 8859-1.  libxml2 uses UTF-8 internally and swish converts
to 8859-1 before indexing (with sometimes loss of characters.  I hope that
gets fixed at some point soon, but I'm not sure what the correct fix is
yet.

That's weird.  I don't have any problem with that line in a config file.
