I assume this means
<!NOTATION XML SYSTEM "http://www.x3.org/XML/etc/etc/">
<!ENTITY xxx SYSTEM "xxx.jar#xxx" NDATA XML>
Strictly speaking, the notation "XML" need not be declared unless
validating.

Actually, fragment identifiers aren't guaranteed to work: an
XML processor is free to reject entity sysids that involve them.
(I think this is because the end of the referenced fragment is
not well-specified.)

XPointers can locate PIs in the current draft.
