The beginning of Appendix A says:

 The following entity can be used to construct a DTD for XSL
stylesheets  that create instances of a particular result DTD.
 Before referencing the entity, the stylesheet DTD must define a 
result-elements parameter entity listing the allowed
 result element types. For example:

 <!ENTITY % result-elements "
   | fo:sequence
   | fo:block
 ">

 The stylesheet DTD may also need to define additional attributes for 
xsl:attribute-set.
