Thanks Ajay for raising the issue.
This is a known bug to me and I am working on it.

If you see commit's after 2.1.1. release, you will find an 
JAXLUtil::xmlentities() method added to the helper class. This will handle not 
only cases like "&" but also cases like "®" "µ" automatically.

Hi Ajay,

The issue is fixed and pushed into Jaxl master:
http://github.com/abhinavsingh/JAXL/commit/92fc6e9b7d5cc1ffeff0b9e36478733de4982
755

Jaxl core now inherently supports:
1) Rserved characters in HTML
2) ISO 8859-1 Symbols
3) ISO 8859-1 Characters
4) Math Symbols Supported by HTML
5) Greek Letters Supported by HTML
6) Other Entities Supported by HTML

Kindly let me know if Jaxl core crashes ever again due to any special character 
or otherwise.
