Do we need a 2.8.1 to be done fairly quickly for this?
This really is my fault, but I must admit I had no idea what @predeclare
was about; I was assuming the regular tests would pick up anything
problematic, and I had no trouble working with @rend and @rendition in
my projects for several months before release. I don't use DTDs, of course.
Cheers,
Martin

I am afraid the `<classSpec>` at.global.rendition is missing the vital
attribute predeclare="true". I have committed the appropriate change to
fix it.
This means that any ODD which redefines @rend, @rendition etc is going
to fail when it comes to making a DTD. You may now formally curse the
day DTDs were invented.
I might note that a few existing ODD users are going to be mighty
confused when they find their code to change @rend globally simply fails
to work these days. In retrospect, it would have been good to highlight
this in the release notes.
