It goes in your xsl:output instruction. The serializer will generate both the
XML declaration and the document type declaration for you. You don't need to
explicitly create them; you can't because they are not part of the XPath/XSLT
data model (no such thing as a 'doctype node').

<xsl:output method="xml" encoding="iso-8859-1"
  doctype-system="http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-xhtml1-20000126/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";
  doctype-pubilc="-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"/>
