iXSLT: XSL transformations and symbolic entities

Hi,

I am transforming between two XML formats. My input DTD has a bunch of
declarations for symbolic entities, such as

	<!ENTITY uuml   "&#252;"> 

which occur in my input XML files. In my XSL stylesheet, I have

<xsl:output method="xml" encoding="ISO-8859-1" indent="yes"
doctype-system="http://www.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/~will/Ariadne/dlmeta-local.dtd"/>

i. e. I would like my transformation process to output umlaut
characters. In order to do the transformation, I use iXSLT from
Infoteria. However, the symbolic entities seem to have been ignored, as
no output occurs. For instance, when the input is the German word

	Universit&auml;t

(auml being declared in my input DTD) the output is

	Universitt

Does anybody have a clue why this is happening and/or what I am doing
wrong?

Thanks for your help and best regards,
Matthias

p.s.: for some reason, one parameter to specify in iXSLT is the output
encoding ...
