The declarations for the predefined entities lt and amp in
xhtml-special.ent are wrong.  They are:

 <!ENTITY lt      "&#38;&#60;" ><!-- less-than sign, U+003C ISOnum -->
 <!ENTITY amp     "&#38;&#38;" ><!-- ampersand, U+0026 ISOnum -->

In each case there is a spurious ampersand.  The correct definitions
from the XML spec are:

 <!ENTITY lt     "&#38;#60;">
 <!ENTITY amp    "&#38;#38;">
