I guess maybe you should be using the latest DocBook DTD for
validation :)

I'm not sure what version you're using now. Maybe DocBook 4.2 or
maybe 4.1.2. Anyway, there have been a good number of changes
since 4.2 was released (more than 3 years ago). While I can't off
the top of my head think of any other changes that might directly
affect doclifter (other than the "allow multiple Refnamediv in
Refentry" change I mentioned in my earlier message), there may be
some others.

If the DocBook DTD packager for a distro you're testing on hasn't
yet packaged 4.3 (which was released well over 2 years ago),
that's pretty bad (they should actually be packaging 4.4 or 4.5).
