The "setFeature" and "getFeature" are methods of the parser
(and apparently not the "xmlreader").

I use them this way:

  from xml.sax import make_parser
  from xml.sax.handler import feature_external_ges
  ...
  parser= make_parser(); parser.setDTDHandler(None)
  parser.setFeature(feature_external_ges,0)
