That's not right. The DocBook XML 4.1.2 distribution from OASIS reads
<!-- ...................................................................... -->
<!-- DocBook XML character entities module V4.1.2 ........................... -->

It looks like a package build error to me. The V4.1 makes me think
that you've got the SGML version in your XML distribution, but the
SGML version is named "dbcent.mod" (no "x") so I can't explain it.
| But the XML spec only allows PUBLIC ids if followed by a SYSTEM one:
Indeed it does :-)
| So the question is:
| - did Red Hat shipped a wrong (or old/buggy) version ?
Yes. I think so.
| - is this file actually need to be fixed in the DocBook XML distrib ?
No.
| - or did I missed something ?
No. I don't think so.
Be seeing you,
