IINM, this is (almost exactly) the situation that the LGPL is designed
for - your proprietary document may be linked to the open DTD and
distributed as long as the user retains the ability to link with a
different DTD. <URL:news:gnu.misc.discuss> is probably a good place
to verify whether this is a correct interpretation for documents.
