I can see another recent change in behaviour. The application that i
mentioned has been working perfectly, but now fails for another reason.

It has a simple front xml file which declares some other files via
systemIdentifiers and includes them as entities  - a legacy aggregator.
Here is a cut-down.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE zal [
 <!ENTITY entconf SYSTEM "spatial_test_13-conf.xml"> 
]>
<zal>
&entconf;
<!-- similarly include other files -->
</zal>

The parser has been quite happy with this, finding the sub-document
files in the same directory as the front.xml

Following Vadim's suggestion to use <map:generate src="file://var/www/...
instead of /var/www/... it does work for a straight XML doc. However,
for this doc the parser tries to charge off across the network looking
for a host called "var" so as to find the declared system entity on their
server at /www/html/zal/.../spatial_test_13-conf.xml
... java.net.UnknownHostException: var

Changing it to file:///var/www/... did fix it. So did file:/var/www/...

This raises another issue. There seems to be confusion for the
syntax. I see various syntaxes in the xdocs ...
-----
faq.xml#faq-28 src="file:///c:/foo/"
That does not show an example for UNIX so i presume file:////foo/
faq.xml#faq-23 src="/www/Foo/"
with a note that this may have to include "file://"
-----
sitemap.xml Aggregating has only one mention, saying file://foo/bar
-----
file-generator.xml shows only simple filename example
and does not have a full pathname example
-----

When we get this sorted out, then we can add a mention in sitemap.xml
and an FAQ. We need to show the syntax for both UN*X and Win.
