Serialize the document element node
instead of the root node:

    package require dom
    set doc [dom::DOMImplementation create]
    dom::node appendChild $doc [dom::document createElement $doc FOO]

    # To include <!DOCTYPE ...> declaration:
    dom::DOMImplementation serialize $doc

    # To omit it:
    dom::DOMImplementation serialize \
    	[dom::document cget $doc -documentElement]


I think that dom::c has a bug where [dom::DOMImplementation serialize]
can end up writing out _two_ <!DOCTYPE ...> declarations
under certain circumstances; I haven't looked into this yet.
