Great information and clarification everyone.
If anyone hasn't taken an underlying message away from the conversation
so far, it is to use HTML 4.01 Strict for you web documents when possible...

I'm finding myself having to justify my work methods to a boss who has
almost zero interest in usability, accessibility or standards. (Though I
have managed to get into the long-term plan: "...website that is compliant
with W3C standards and Section 508...")
One question that has been raised is "if site X has pages that validate as
transitional, why do you have to produce pages that validate as strict?"
One argument against the use of transitional doctypes is that they're
now more than eight years old which makes them about half as old as
the Web itself. Do you want to base your site on what was status quo
half a Web lifetime ago?
Good luck
