  it's the default behaviour !!!
  it's what it does, get a clue, when reserializing obviously it
won't output things twice !!!

paphio:~/XML -> xmllint --debug nstoken.xml
DOCUMENT
version=1.0
URL=nstoken.xml
standalone=true
  DTD(Urmel)
    ENTITYDECL(jaja), internal
     content=<eins><zwei/><drei>drei</drei></eins>
      ELEMENT eins
        ELEMENT zwei
        ELEMENT drei
          TEXT compact
            content=drei
  ELEMENT Urmel
    TEXT compact
      content= 
    ENTITY_REF(jaja)
      INTERNAL_GENERAL_ENTITY jaja
      content=<eins><zwei/><drei>drei</drei></eins>
    TEXT compact
      content= 
paphio:~/XML -> 

  Complete proof:

(gdb) p *doc->children->next->children->next
$5 = {_private = 0x0, type = XML_ENTITY_REF_NODE, name = 0x7a0238
"jaja", 
  children = 0x7a3658, last = 0x7a3658, parent = 0x7a0448, next =
0x7a3918, 
  prev = 0x7a3798, doc = 0x7a00a8, ns = 0x0, 
  content = 0x7a3728 "<eins><zwei/><drei>drei</drei></eins>", 
  properties = 0x0, nsDef = 0x0, psvi = 0x0, line = 0, extra = 0}
(gdb) p *doc->children->next->children->next->children
$6 = {_private = 0x0, type = XML_ENTITY_DECL, name = 0x79fc5d "jaja", 
  children = 0x7a3c28, last = 0x7a3c28, parent = 0x7a02d8, next = 0x0, 
  prev = 0x0, doc = 0x7a00a8, ns = 0x7a0398, 
  content = 0x7a3728 "<eins><zwei/><drei>drei</drei></eins>", 
  properties = 0x100000025, nsDef = 0x0, psvi = 0x0, line = 0, extra =
0}
(gdb) p *doc->children->next->children->next->children->children
$7 = {_private = 0x0, type = XML_ELEMENT_NODE, name = 0x79fc6d "eins", 
  children = 0x7a3ce8, last = 0x7a3da8, parent = 0x7a3658, next = 0x0, 
  prev = 0x0, doc = 0x7a00a8, ns = 0x0, content = 0x0, properties = 0x0, 
  nsDef = 0x0, psvi = 0x0, line = 1, extra = 0}
(gdb) 

  End of story, now please use the library and explore what it does
that will be more productive !
