I'm trying to understand why the w3 validator believe's the following
minimal document is invalid:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN">

<html lang="en">
<head>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

There are two "errors":
1. Line 5 column 6: end tag for "HEAD" which is not finished
2. Line 8 column 6: end tag for "BODY" which is not finished.

That's not minimal document. This one is:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN">
<title>.</title><p>.

Your document has empty HEAD, but it must contain at leas TITLE (the
only element which should be marked up explicitly). BODY is also
empty, but it must contain some block leve elements or INS|DEL.
