SGML TC 2 can be found here: http://www1.y12.doe.gov/capabilities/sgml/wg8/document/1955.htm See the section K.4.1 for hexidecimal character references. Since this is really an update to the SGML standard, and not part of the original, any support for this should be an optional feature. It's really only interesting on the web, where standards compliance is... a little on the lax side. It would be reasonable to enable this by default from htmllib (if not already supported in htmllib; I don't remember). I'm fairly sure hex character references are already supported in HTMLParser.
