it's a nice idea to be able to get default values out of a dtd, but surely 
the way to go to do this is to use xsd and not dtd. Then we can use phpxpath 
as it stands to get the appropriate default out of the xsd; phpxpath itself 
would not need to be changed - I can imagine the changes needed to use dtds 
would be substantial.
