Hi Elliotte,
That is a strange error message, especially since your imagedata looks ok
to me. Which version of DocBook are you validating against? Since you
have an <alt> in your mediaobject, I presume it is DocBook 5. When I cut
and pasted your sample para into a DocBook 5 document, the document
validated in xmllint 2.6.23.
