Heck, just use a SAX2 parser that reports all DTD declarations,
and connect its output to an output processing stage that knows
how to print such things correctly.  Parse a file that just
includes your DTD with a token root element, and manually edit out
the four or five lines that aren't the expanded (internal) DTD
subset you're after.

I recall doing such things with my XML utilities last year.
(Not updated in a while, but see the Java libraries at
http://xmlconf.sourceforge.net ... one day maybe I'll put
the non-javadoc documentation back there!)
