Looking at the code for the external_entity_ref_handler function in
Bio/Entrez/Parser.py is doesn't actually attempt to cache missing DTD files.

Would this be a worthwhile enhancement?  We would have to cope with the fact
that the process may not have permissions to write to the DTD directory,
perhaps by falling back on the system temp folder?
