There is a more elegant solution if you're using Xerces 2.7.x. SAX 2.0.2
added an extension interface called EntityResolver2 [1] which allows
applications to provide an external subset to documents which do not have
one. This includes documents which have no DOCTYPE declaration. If an
instance of EntityResolver2 is registered with the SAX parser
getExternalSubset() will be called in such cases. The same applies to
DocumentBuilders.
