Ah.  The perils of general-purpose updates!

The (primitive) redirect support is something I implemented for Code
Valet, which uses SP's internal code (URLStorage.cxx) to fetch all
documents, not just DTDs.  IMO it makes sense when someone enters a
redirected URL for their HTML page, but might be more confusing when
it fetches a DTD.  The latter is a relatively rare/obscure situation,
which is also why the validator survived without it for so long.
