Note:

AFAICS the empty

<div class="titlepage">
<div></div>
<div></div>
</div>

should not be there. (I also get this with a real
refentry, where
refpurpose has content)

The main issue is:

The output is invalid, I neither want nor need
target="_top". I think
that at least with the parameters I set, no target
attributes should be generated,
per default.

Something else (not really part of this bug report):

With this in the input doc:

<refentryinfo>
<title>foo Manual</title>
<copyright>
<year>2004</year>
</copyright>
<author>
<firstname>Tobias</firstname>
<surname>Reif</surname>
</author>
<releaseinfo>draft 2004-06</releaseinfo>
</refentryinfo>

neither releaseinfo nor the copyright year appear in
the output
(neither in the man page nor in the (X)HTML version)

    You can get rid of target attribute by setting parameter ulink.
    target to empty string.

    Empty divs are not generated starting (I think) from 1.66.1.

    Appearance of elements in *info can be customized by using
    titlepage templates. See http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/
    HtmlCustomEx.html#HTMLTitlePage for more info.
