  So *you* reproduce the DOCTYPE, not the XSLT processor, don't you? 
You can also use a parameter to do that.  But the processor itself
can't reproduce the DOCTYPE.  And even if some processor can ('2.6):

    Users should be aware, however, that since the input to
    the transformation is a tree conforming to the XDM data
    model as described in [Data Model], constructs that
    might exist in the original XML document, or in the DOM,
    but which are not within the scope of the data model,
    cannot be processed by the stylesheet and cannot be
    guaranteed to remain unchanged in the transformation
    output. Such constructs include CDATA section
    boundaries, the use of entity references, and the
    DOCTYPE declaration and internal DTD subset.
