It appears that xmllint has stopped working in recent CygWin versions.
Specifically with libxml2-2.6.20 or was it broken before you upgraded?
Specifically, the use of an entity defined in an XML file triggers the
following:

These same files used to pass xmllint fine, and they still do when I run
xmllint on a FreeBSD system.
Which version?
The xsd in question is too large to post in this msg, but here's a sort
of minimal XML file that will trigger the error:
How do I need to call it to reproduce the error? At least when running
`xmllint Paradigms.Defn.xml` I get no error (Unimplemented block) with
version 2.6.20.

I'm not sure of the exact date when this started happening, but I just
noticed it yesterday. I downloaded the latest CygWin update today, and
xmllint is still not working.
BTW, I am inexperienced with XML, so it could be that the above is due
to s.t. that I'm doing wrong--but as I say, at least one other
implementation of xmllint accepts it.
And it could be that there's a better place to report this bug. I
looked for an libxml site on sourceforge, but only found libxml2 (=
libxml++).
Libxml is an GNU project with its own site: http://www.libxml.org
