This dtd is documentation....

I'd say it doesn't work like that. But apperently the script and others 
know better :)

So let me just take the liberty as someone who wrote this damn thing and 
say what exactly it's for:
- this dtd was meant to be loose documentation for the structure of kcfg 
files while we were improving kconfig_compiler,
- it was never meant to be used a strict validator,

In order to use the dtd to validate files so strickly you need to fix 
it.

scripts and people who believe the scripts over developers)
