As long as you realy are writing to a file that's going to be reparsed.
Of course really this is putting text inro the result tree, not a
doctype declaration (unlike using xsl:output.

Which leads to a question for xsl 2 perhaps, why sren't the attributes
of xsl:output AVT, so that you can use stylesheet parameters in there?

In other words why can't this be made to work? 

     <xsl:output method="xml" doctype-system="string($doctype)"/>
