Then, as I asked in May:
http://www.lists.ic.ac.uk/hypermail/xml-dev/9805/0085.html
but never got an answer to:

[9] EntityValue ::= '"' ([^%&"] | PEReference | Reference)* '"' | "'"
([^%&'] | PEReference | Reference)* "'"

If this is the DTD grammar AFTER PE inclusion, how can there be
PEReferences ???
