That comment seems odd, the w3c distributed xhtml+mathml dtd does of 
course define the html entities, although actually it doesn't matter 
much in firefox what the standard dtd says as firefox never loads an 
external dtd. It will, given certain constraints on the input document, 
recognise a mathml document and load the mathml.dtd that it installs 
locally as the browser is installed, that mostly defines the same entity 
names as the standard dtd (but with different definitions)
