I think this is completely bogus and the reason of your problem.
You just assume that in all and any URI-Reference computation leading
to an external fetching this sequence should be added. You don't have
the right to do this.
If your DTD is in /dvl/fds/dtd the URI-Reference from the XML document
should point at it there.
However I must admit (I discovered it today) that the entity loader
is called and the URI location of the resource effectively used has
been changed, then this must me made available back to the parser. I
think it is through the filename field of the returned
xmlParserInputPtr but I must double check that it's done the right way
(especially if it uses HTTP and a redirection).
