I was browsing through the SVG Recommendation and found either an error or a 
very unorthodox piece of coding in the XSLT stylesheet in Chapter 6.6. 
Outputting a DOCTYPE nested within <xsl:text> is something I hadn't seen 
before.

I think the code in the example is incorrect and that what should be there is 
something beginning like this:

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
<xsl:stylesheet 
  xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" 
  xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
  version="1.0">
<!-- Add DOCTYPE -->
<xsl:output
  method="xml"
  doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD SVG 20010904//EN" 
  doctype-system="http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-SVG-20010904/DTD/svg10.dtd" />
