Indeed.  In XML 1.1, C0 characters other than NUL are prohibited from appearing explicitly, but may appear as character references.  The C1 control characters from #x80 to #x9F (with the exception of NL) are allowed in XML 1.0, but prohibited in XML 1.1 except as character references.

Of course, everything about XML 1.1 is of merely antiquarian interest now.
