These should be abolished anyway, as Jeni already mentioned.

It is tempting to replace them by

<nag:refer item="e04BL-a"/>

and use a dictionary and document() in the XSL to look it up
when necessary, or pass it through if you want to keep it.
Use a sed script to transform the entity definitions to the
dictionary and the entity references to XML elements :-)
