I get:

dump catalog
PUBLIC "-//GNU Backgammon//DTD Match Equity Tables//EN" "met.dtd"
end dump catalog

(and then gnubg crashes)

Changed 'fprintf' to 'printf', then I got:

dump catalog
PUBLIC "-//GNU Backgammon//DTD Match Equity Tables//EN" "met.dtd"
end dump catalog
resolve 'met.dtd'
warning: failed to load external entity "met.dtd"
Could not load the external subset "met.dtd"
XML does not validate!
dump catalog
PUBLIC "-//GNU Backgammon//DTD Match Equity Tables//EN" "met.dtd"
end dump catalog
resolve 'met.dtd'
warning: failed to load external entity "met.dtd"
Could not load the external subset "met.dtd"
XML does not validate!
Error reading MET

Adding these lines: matchequity does not compile.

(bedtime here now)
