You'll find my runjade script in the sgml2x package.  Among other
things it filters out those annoying warnings.  Just prefix your
"openjade" command with "runjade".

The real fix would be to see how it is that jade does not spit those
warnings, and port the changes into openjade1.3.

Strange.  That looks like "element" has not been declared, although it
is declared by the modular stylesheets, of which ldp.dsl inherits...

Try with all 3 jade variants, and see whether they differ in behaviour.
