How can I convert HTML characters to their equivalents on the iPhone?

I want to convert:

&lt;?xml version="1.0"?&gt;
  &lt;Company&gt;
    &lt;CompanyId&gt;5&lt;/CompanyId&gt;
    &lt;Name&gt;Acme Inc.&lt;/Name&gt;
  &lt;/Company&gt;

To:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
  <Company>
    <CompanyId>5</CompanyId>
    <Name>Acme Inc.</Name>
  </Company>

on a iPhone. But I can't find any standard functions available on the iPhone, nor could I find any mature (open source) libraries.

CFXMLCreateStringByUnescapingEntities works OK on the simulator but not on the device.
