DTDs are used for other things than validation, they can contain
default values for attributes, so even if validation is turned off
the xml processer will still need to look at the DTD.

For example: widgets.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE widgets PUBLIC "-//Widgets//EN" "widgets.dtd">
<widgets>
  <widget/>
</widgets>

widgets.dtd
<!ELEMENT widgets (widget?)>
<!ELEMENT widget (#PCDATA)>
<!ATTLIST widget type CDATA "foobar">

and build.xml
  <target name="x">
    <xmlproperty file="widgets.xml" collapseAttributes="yes"/>
    <echo>widgets.widget.type is ${widgets.widget.type}</echo>
  </target>
outputs:
x:
     [echo] widgets.widget.type is foobar

The dependency with 27053 is correct, this change will
allow the dtd to located locally, so I will mark this
as fixed.
