| | <!-- ERROR: Exactly one of xml.features and sgml.features must be turned on! -->

| | They won't get very far without those two modules.  8^)

| True. But they won't get obvious error messages either.

I think this is a better answer:

<![%sgml.features;[
<![%xml.features;[
<!-- ERROR: Exactly one of xml.features and sgml.features must be turned on! -->
<!ENTITY % dbpool PUBLIC
"-//OASIS//ELEMENTS DocBook Information Pool ERROR V4.2CR1//EN"
"http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/error.both.xml.and.xml.features.selected";>
