It's almost certainly due to my not setting the publicid and/or systemid's
on the SAX InputSource - but I don't know to what they should be set. My
query on the subject garnered no replies, and it's not a pressing issue
for me (my itch is scratched) so I didn't follow up. I'd be glad to take a
patch or even a suggestion as to what the value(s) should be.
