Woops, I accidentally downloaded yesterday's nightly (June 10th) while I thought
it was of today (June 11th). However, I still see the XML error in today's nightly.

I guess this is just a temporary glitch since the nightly on the ftp was built
in the time the checkin was made (and there those two new entries are missing in
the DTD file). The pacifica-trunk build from 11th works and the beast-trunk from
12th also works. Atm new nightlies don't seem to get pushed to the server, since
pacifica is down.

I have the same problem. Once triggered, the error persists onto all the other
tabs.

Possibly a duplicate of https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=260703

Problem looks to be fixed in latest nightly build:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050614
Firefox/1.0+

Can no longer reproduce bug.
