The problem started when we switched from the Xerces parsers to Sun's own and no attempt on my part was successful in getting it it use the NCBI's DTD. Part of the problem is that DTD from NCBI refers to other DTDs and those references are not complete so my code used to explicitly resolve them but with Sun's parser, I could never convince it to use the provided DTDs.
I don't have time to return to that problem for a while so perhaps someone else more familiar with Crimson could figure it out. Alternatively, we could hack it to not use DTDs at all (totally non-validating).
