In our system, I have the whole olink db production mechanism hidden 
from view. It first generates an ant file for your suite of docs, then 
runs it, generating the olink.dbs. I had to check to how I'd gotten 
around the problem you mention. I just checked and it's not elegant, but 
it does work. In the ant file after generating all the target dbs, I do:

<replace dir="/home/dcramer/workhead-svn/sdc/branches/8.0/target">
<include name="target-*.db"/>
<replacefilter token="&lt;!DOCTYPE div" value=""/>
<replacefilter token="PUBLIC &#34;-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 
Transitional//EN&#34; 
&#34;http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd&#34;&gt;";
                      value=""/>
</replace>
