Yes. I"ve stripped down the malicous chapter1.xml to the following 
minimal file:

------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>

<chapter id="cha.InstallingAndRunning">

<title>Auf die Plätze - fertig - LEDA!</title>

<para>Dieses Kapitel vermittelt uns das notwendige Wissen, um
   LEDA-Programme schreiben und ausführen zu können. Wo erhalten wir
   LEDA überhaupt und wie installieren wir es? Wo gibt es Hilfe? Wie
   bringen wir überhaupt ein allererstes Programm zum Laufen? Das alles 
sind Fragen, die vor der eigentlichen Programmierung mit LEDA geklärt 
werden sollen.
</para>

</chapter>

-------------------------------

First of all, to prove that the overall arrangement is valid:

$ /opt/gnu/bin/xmllint --noout --valid LEDATutorium.xml
(no output by xmllint, so valid)

When I start up Xemacs 21.1.patch14 with
$ xemacs chapter1.xml&

I get:

(1) (local-variables/warning) File local-variables error: Symbol's 
function definition is void: char-table-parent

For the XML-Mode, I have the folloing lines in my .emacs:


(push (expand-file-name "~ziegler/Emacs") load-path)
(autoload 'sgml-mode "psgml" "Major mode to edit SGML files." t)
(autoload 'xml-mode "psgml" "Major mode to edit XML files." t)


To byte-compile, I did:
- load the file ~/Emacs/psgml-maint.el
- M-x eval-buffer
- M-x psgml-compile files

The minibuffer says "done compiling"

I close Xemacs and startup anew, load chapter1.xml, and still get:

(1) (local-variables/warning) File local-variables error: Symbol's 
function definition is void: char-table-parent

Positioning the curser right behind </title> and pressing C-c C-e, I get

External entity CHAPTER not found


Going to some place in the <para> and pressing the right mouse button, I get

What now?
