DOCBOOK: including C source files

[John Gruenenfelder <johng at bach dot as dot arizona dot edu>]

I've written a manual to a small operating system for a satellite (a very
small satellite) using the SGML version of Docbook.  When the C source code
for the OS is finished, so will the manual since, after launch, there will be
no way to change it.

I'm including the source in an appendix.  In the document's internal subset,
I've declared entities for each source file, like so:
  <!entity cubesat-c SYSTEM "../cubesat.c">

Later, in the appendix, I use these entities within a section:

<section id="cubesat.c"><title>cubesat.c</title>
  <programlisting>
    &cubesat-c;
  </programlisting>
</section>


My problem is that the Docbook parser treats the included text as more SGML,
so any occurances of '<', '>', and '&' cause problems.  How can I instruct
Docbook to include the contents of the file without having the parser recurse
into it?
