Hum, I would have to dig, likely a bug but please consider it a limitation
in the meantime :-) . try to use
xmllint --noout --postvalid --noent article.xml
I suppose that if the flag noent is given, then this will force loading the
DTD, and the ID will not be hidden behing an entity boundary anymore, worth
trying ...
