It catches some problems, but will try to load the DTD. You can use
try/catch in XSLT to get most errors, but not all. However, i use
either xmllint or xmlwf for this situation. Massively faster and
easier, and more useful error messages most of the time, but xmllint
doesn't report line numbers correctly after line 65535, so i use xmlwf
in that case.
