That's the file I quoted. Sorry for not making that clear:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN"
"../../../docbook-xml-4.5/docbookx.dtd"
[<!ENTITY % manualvariables SYSTEM "manualvariables.mod"> %manualvariables;]>
<book lang="en" id="book.user.guide">
 <bookinfo>
   <title id="book.user.guide.title">OmegaT &vernb; - User Guide</title>
   <pubdate>@timestamp@</pubdate>
	<!-- TODO automate date insertion -->
   <abstract>
     <para>This document is the official user guide to OmegaT, the free
     Computer-Assisted Translation tool.</para>
   </abstract>
 </bookinfo>
...

ââââ
That is the beginning of OmegaTUsersManual_xinclude full.xml.

line 7 in the error message refers to: 

   <title id="book.user.guide.title">OmegaT &vernb; - User Guide</title>
