Which DTD?  If it's one(s) from the gnucash source tree, it's likely out
of date and unmaintained.  Chris's message was regarding validating the
datafile using the schema at
http://svn.gnucash.org/trac/browser/gnucash/trunk/src/doc/xml/gnucash-v2.rnc .  
If you prefer XSD, trang [1] can be used to convert; I might eventually
setup a Makefile rule to do so (conditionally, as it's a somewhat
obscure dep).

I'd love feedback on validation failures against the schema, even if
it's non-normative and we don't use it while emitting the datafile
presently.  There've been multiple requests for a datafile schema, so
it'd be nice to have one.
