The file *is* valid.
	$  xmllint --valid --noout /var/lib/doc-base/omf/mh-book/mh-book-C.omf  && echo OK
	OK

But scrollkeeper fails on that file, because it contains the "&"
escape sequences:

	$ grep "&" /var/lib/doc-base/omf/mh-book/mh-book-C.omf 
                <title>MH &amp; nmh: Email for Users &amp;Programmers</title>


I've just noted that double encoding "&" as "&amp;amp;" seems to work,
so I can get round the bug in that way in doc-base. However I think the right solution 
would be to fix scrollkeeper.
