Oops, my fault.

Just reinforces my anti-DTD sentiment, though. I mean,
seriously, in case of XHTML using DTD for validation is
about as bad as using Appendix C for 'compatibility'. Both
mean we cannot freely use XML tools for processing without
a lot of kludgery to make sure nothing 'breaks' in the
pipeline. Kinda defeats the whole point of XML.
