[xep-support] SVG graphic goes missing

I get a missing SVG graphic on the cover of a PDF. XEP (or Sax) says it 
can't access a W3C URL to validate the SVG. See Ant output below. I've 
tried this on two separate PCs in two different geographic areas. I can 
access the DTD URL it complains about with Chrome and Mozilla but not 
IE8 (403 forbidden). Is it possible that the W3C server is having a 
problem? Or is XEP not handling this properly? This has worked before 
without a problem and no recent changes, for at least a year.

This works when I change the doctype declaration in the SVG to use a 
local copy of the DTD.

Thanks,
Mark

Here is part of the output from Ant when I run the PDF:
