Thanks for the feedback. Indeed I get the same output as you after symlinking to a file with an sgml extension. For context, I wanted to edit the favourites.gpx file used by OSMand. But I heard OSMand is quite fussy about spec compliance. E.g. bad things would happen if I add a description to a favourite (a point of interest) which literally contains an ampersand (“&”), which should be written as “&” My edits caused OSMand to behave poorly. So I was hoping linuxdoc-tools could help me find characters that I need to encode for sgml compliance. Anyway, that’s not your problem but I wanted to give some context on what led me to use linuxdoc-tools on a GPX file. Glad my bug report was useful nonetheless.
