| It appears that version 1.67 of the DSSSL stylesheets has broken the
| SGML compatibility.
Oh, barf.
| I note that Norm has changed the entity generation system to be
| generated from a (new) common `xmlcharent' module, and I think this
| must be an artifact of that change. But somewhere along the line SGML
| must have dropped out of the picture. (Does SGML grok unicode, for
| example, I don't know?)
No, it didn't drop out of the picture, but I forgot about the character
set issues associated with numeric character references in SGML.
| In any case, is this a bug or feature? i.e. is there a simple fix,
Bug. Not fixed in 1.68 but I'll fix it today in CVS.
Be seeing you,
norm
