[XML-SIG] turning off dtd resolver in sax

[Radovan Chytracek]

Hi,

  I was having the same problem and tried to discuss it here without any
feedback, for details see:

http://mail.python.org/pipermail/xml-sig/2003-September/009876.html


where I have provided a solution to this. However, it does not work as
is because PyXML has for some reasons disabled EntityResolver proper
call sequence. I had to hack my local Python installation to make it
work. Hope this helps you a bit.
