Oops, (my version of) xmllint doesn't flag it, but the document is *not* 
DocBook. All elements are in a namespace named "http://www.star.net.uk/"; 
which is not a Docbook namespace. DBX 4.2 documents and elements must be 
in the null namespace (except for SVG etc elements).

Tools which process DBX should not treat
  <article xmlns="http://www.star.net.uk/";>
as
  <article>
It's a different element.
