I took it to apply to both. It would be peculiar to embed the statement in a paragraph about system identifiers if it didn't apply to them. I assume by "those examples" you mean "a special XML element type defined by a particular DTD, or a processing instruction defined by a particular application specification". A processing instruction could be in or before the DTD, and could certainly affect the interpretation of declarations. The element could be something like the BASE element in HTML. I'm not sure whether it is defined whether BASE affects entity declarations (it would only arise in XHTML). -- Richard
