Thank you, Daniel. At this point, I'm still trying to figure out the 
correct
use of catalogs. Once I figure it out, and I still find there are 
problems, I might file bug reports. I hope you don't mind me posting a 
few more questions now.

I have a document that XInclude's a document in a subdirectory:

<!DOCTYPE set PUBLIC "-//mycompany//DTD DocBook XML V4.2-Based Extension 
V1.0//EN" "mycustomized-docbook.dtd" [
]>
<set>
  <title>Test</test>
  <xi:include href="subdir1/book1.xml"/>
</set>

and the XInclude'd document, subdir1/book1.xml, contains the same DOCTYPE 
declaration:

<!DOCTYPE set PUBLIC "-//mycompany//DTD DocBook XML V4.2-Based Extension 
V1.0//EN" "mycustomized-docbook.dtd" [
]>
<book>
  <title>blah, blah</title>
  ...
</book>

1) If the XML catalog contains no entry to resolve the PUBLIC identifier, 
and therefore tries to resolve the SYSTEM identifier, is it supposed to 
look for 

  a) "mycutomized-docbook.dtd", or
  b) "subdir1/mycustomized-docbook.dtd"

2) Does xsltproc handle @prefer attribute in <group> element of XML 
catalogs?
