I now have a better understanding of the problem.

This works:
-=-=-=
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE para PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.4//EN"
  "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.4/docbookx.dtd";>
<para>Welcome to my document&mdash;quite a small one.</para>
-=-=-=

This doesn't:
-=-=-=
<para>Welcome to my document&mdash;quite a small one.</para>
-=-=-=

But this does:
-=-=-=
<para>Welcome to my document; quite a small one.</para>
-=-=-=

However, I am working on a big document split in several files, all
included from a master. The various parts do not have XML and DOCTYPE
declaration. I can sort that out in the preprocessing/Makefile, but it
would be more convenient if dblatex could be more flexible smooth out
such problems. After all, is not the input supposed to be DocBook?

I guess this can requalify as a wishlist then.
