Hi. With a recent xmllint (using libxml version 21500-GITv2.15.0), doc compilation fails with:

/usr/bin/xmllint --nonet --path . --path . --output postgres-full.xml --noent --valid postgres.sgml
ref/pg_combinebackup.sgml:317: validity error : standalone: normalization of attribute linkend on xref by external subset declaration
state of the cluster using <xref linkend="app-pgchecksums "/> is
^

Attached a patch to solve the issue.

Thanks for the report, this was already fixed in a48d1ef58652229 and will ship
in 18.1.
