libxsd doesn't wrap any DTD-related Xerces-C++ configuration parameters
so you will need to do your own XML-to-DOM parsing with one of these
parameters and then do DOM-to-C++ (there is a parsing function overload
that takes DOM instead of istream, etc).

The following FAQ entry has some sample code (you can also find it in
the multiroot example):
