-          You are probably trying to build the project with an old version of
-          Forrest (built before 2003-01-08) that is incorrectly trying to validate
-          the &s; file.  If so, please update your Forrest
-          installation.
-        </p>
-        <p>
-          Alternatively, you may be building with an up-to-date Forrest, but have
-          overridden <code>forrest.validate.xdocs.excludes</code> in
-          <code>forrest.properties</code>.  With the introduction of
-          &s;, the above property must have &s;
-          listed to prevent an attempt at DTD-based validation.
