You are confusing the encoding declaration (production [80]), the text 
declaration (production [77]) and the XML declaration (production [23]).

The encoding declaration is an optional part of either the text 
declaration or the XML declaration.  The XML declaration must have the 
version info pseudo-attribute, but it is optional in the text 
declaration.  The examples at the end of 4.3.3 are, as the paragraph 
above says, text declarations (containing encoding declarations, but no 
version info).
