ScislaC: I can confirm the replacement in Firefox. Now that I have real
entries, I've tested it completely and read up more on libxml2 mailing
list. It looks like the parsing of SYSTEM/PUBLIC entity data caused them
to drop the NOENT replacement option, giving us no option to disable
SYSTEM/PUBLIC parsing or introducing custom entities before the parser
croaks.

Thus, I'm convinced that a patch to libxml2 is the only solution without
hacking inkscape to read in the xml first and search and replace
entities from a set list for illustrator files. Which I would hate to
have to do.
