However, editing the xmlns attribute out of the DTD doesn't fix the
problem.

Removing the DocType Declaration from the instance fixes it. I thought
there might be a further entity reference with another copy of the
namespace declaration but running spam to expand the whole caboodle
and grepping for xmlns says not.

I wonder where it's coming from...
