This appears to be related to this discussion but I have exactly the opposite use case. I do not wish to insert a BOM but emacs appears to be inserting one in XML mode (without even being in hexl-mode). I am using GNU Emacs 23.3.1.
I have the following XML file:
$ cat a.xml
<?xml encoding="UTF-16"?><a/>
$ xxd a.xml
0000000: 3c3f 786d 6c20 656e 636f 6469 6e67 3d22 <?xml encoding="
0000010: 5554 462d 3136 223f 3e3c 612f 3e0a UTF-16"?><a/>.
The file does not contain a BOM as can be seen.
When I try to open it with emacs a.xml this is what I see:

When I then switch to hexl-mode it appears that a BOM has been inserted:

This happens even if I start Emacs with emacs -Q.

Does this happen if you start Emacs withemacs -q? If not, post your init file (~/.emacsor~/.emacs.d/init.el). If it does, what aboutemacs -Q?
