You can try out Emacs' built-in sgml-mode which is much less featureful
than PSGML but doesn't require anything like a DTD.
The version that comes with Emacs-21.2 is severely under-featured
in many respects, but the version in the development code
http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/emacs/emacs/lisp/textmodes/sgml-mode.el?rev=HEAD
supposedly works with Emacs-21.2 and provides XML support and indentation.

I'd be interested to hear any comment about it,
