Rats.  In that case the 1.08 stylesheets are really problematic
because they use parameter-entity controlled marked sections.
They do that because some languages use a bunch of character
entities and I wanted to make declaration of all those entities
optional (especially since they're all SDATA entities as
distributed by ISO).
