Is any form of DOCTYPE accepted?

We're getting errors on the second line like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE DOT_OFFICER_CITATION SYSTEM http://host.domain/dtd/dotdisposition0_02.dtd">

The actual host.domain value is resolved by DNS,
and wget of the url works on the machine.
Attempts to cast the document to type xml give:

ERROR:  invalid XML content
DETAIL:  Entity: line 2: parser error : StartTag: invalid element name
<!DOCTYPE DOT_OFFICER_CITATION SYSTEM "http://host.domain/dtd/dot
^

It would be nice to use the xml type, but we always have DOCTYPE....
