Declaring predefined entities

http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/WD-xml-2e-review-20000814#sec-predefined-ent

[E80]'s Rationale says "It was unclear whether the example declaration in
4.6 are normative or merely examples and what declarations are acceptable."

It is still unclear!

Am I allowed to define the amp, lt, gt, apos and quot entities to be *any*
single character reference, or *must* I use references to *certain*
characters?

Like would this be allowed? (crazy as it might be)

<!ENTITY amp "&#32;">
