not to your local site managers!!
Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.
Please describe as succinctly as possible:

Dear Bug Team!
I've just been struggling for some time (my fault, I'm not enough of
an XEmacs/PSGML expert) with the problem that, when I load an HTML
file without a doctype declaration, I always get "external entity html
not found".
I created a CATALOG of my own with a doctype entry for html, although
I later found there was one anyway in
.../xemacs/xemacs-packages/etc/psgml/CATALOG, with the entry
DOCTYPE HTML html.dtd
but it still didn't work.
Much puzzling over elisp later, I found the answer: the names of
doctypes found in catalog files are upcased, but sgml-catalog-lookup
doesn't upcase the name it tries to match against. The following patch
cures that:
--- psgml-parse.el Tue Feb 13 06:06:19 2001
+++ psgml-parse.el.new Sun Aug 4 22:49:05 2002
＠＠ -2015,6 +2015,8 ＠＠
type 'entity))
((eq type 'dtd)
(setq type 'doctype)))
+ (if (eq type 'doctype)
+ (setq name (upcase name)))
;;(sgml-trace-lookup " [pubid='%s' type=%s name='%s']" pubid
type name)
(let ((remaining files)
(file nil))
It also seems sensible for the same reason to change the line in
psgml-html.el/html-mode so that it reads
sgml-default-doctype-name "HTML"
(it's unnecessary, since it will be upcased anyway, but it seems
sensible to have all literal doctypes in upper case so as to avoid
confusion (and possible bugs)).
Now it works fine: you can load un-doctyped HTML (such as that
produced by Google) into XEmacs (I have Opera set up to use XEmacs as
its source viewer) and happily play around, even with
auto-activate-dtd on.
I'm somewhat surprised no-one fixed this before, but I suppose most
people are happy to obey the command in the PSGML info that "you must
have a doctype declaration", even though the defaulting mechanisms
suggest that this is not strictly true.
