I can't seem to find information on how to make complete XML files of the reference docs. The en/reference/*/functions/*.xml files are not actually valid XML, as they don't have a DOCTYPE and don't define all the custom XML entities they use.

How do I transform these sources into complete, valid XML documents?

CVS access to the XML is just what I needed.

Even though the XML may not be really trusted anymore, it's certain to be more stable in its general format than the HTML, so I'll work on something to scrape over that.

Just to clarify, our XML sources are very trustworthy :) But since we used to generate a few files from php-src (the PHP sources (C files...)) some people used those in the past but I don't recommend it. For example, these:

  http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/phpdoc/funcindex.xml
  http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/phpdoc/funcsummary.txt.
