Did you used external WBXML decoder? If no please try it.
Also please download this file: 
http://mooha.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/mooha_server/log.php
Use it instead of your index.php in the root of mooha_server.
Create directory "data" in that root and make it writable, then after sync you 
will have all the converation there.
Please send it zipped to my email: artico.bandurini@gmail.com

with the external library I could get it to work.
But unfortunately you have to add some unwanted directories to the open_basedir 
variable.
perhaps if you would make a place where the binaries could be copied into the 
directories this would help.
example: /usr/share/webapps/bin/

Can you please elaborate a bit which directories you assume?

Some place to copy the xml2wbxml and wbxml2xml files to.
I use archlinux where I have made a directory /usr/share/webapps/bin so that 
PHP can use these tools.
Basically I don't like to expose all my /usr/local/bin via open_base 
PHP-variable so I copy the essential files to an other place that I place 
within my open_base variable.
Perhaps this should be specific for each distribution but a general good 
starting point would be to point it somewhere via a configurable variable.

for ./inc/WbxmlHelper.php
29c29,30
<       '/usr/share/webapps/bin/',
---
>       '/usr/bin/',
>       '/usr/local/bin/'
207c208

or better via a variable in the config file.

You need to find out how to install these libraries on your Linux:
libwbxml2
libwbxml2-utils

for Redhat EnterpriseL Linux 5 that you seem to have this would be the wbxml2 
package.

Then you have to care that the files xml2wbxml and wbxml2xml are within a path 
that is configured withing you PHP variable open_base. If you don't want to 
open open_base to a significant part of your system you can move these files 
into your mooha folder (I use a bin folder) and adapt the file 
./inc/WbxmlHelper.php
from:
/usr/bin/
/usr/local/bin/
to:
/usr/share/webapps/bin/

I was having this same issue as well, also on an E51. The decoded XML looked 
like this:

<SyncML

Note the CDATA section that doesn't contain the proper CDATA.

Switching over to external wbxml tools fixed this problem for me (though I had 
to bump the WBXML_VERSION to 1.2 to get it to work with SyncEvolution). When I 
switched back to the internal WBXML decoder, the problem didn't occur anymore 
(not sure why), so I don't have the encoded WBXML for comparison...
