[cxml-devel] skipping the DTD decl. when `validate' is `nil'

I am not familiar with XBEL, but reading over its DTD it does not seem
to define general entities, so in this case you could just parse with
  :entity-resolver (lambda (p s) (make-concatenated-stream))
which pretends that the external subset and all external entities are empty.


(Another answer for the FAQ list cxml doesn't have.)
