This is certainly wrong, the procedure is for XML documents and DTDs are
not XML documents. You have to use, for example, xmlParseDTD() to parse
the DTD.

The reader interface is a stream-oriented interface, you process as you
parse; the parser interface creates in-memory tree structures, you parse
in one go and process later. For very small documents the main concern
should be how you would like to process and manipulate the document.
