Can you add the following lines to matchequity.c:

  /* debug */
  printf( "dump catalog\n" );
  xmlCatalogDump( stdout );
  printf( "end dump catalog\n" );
  /* end debug */

  pc = xmlCatalogResolve ( doc->intSubset->ExternalID, 
                           doc->intSubset->SystemID );

  /* debug */
  fprintf( "resolve '%s'\n", pc );
  /* end debug */

and tell me what it reports, please.

You should hopefully get a line like:

PUBLIC "-//GNU Backgammon//DTD Match Equity Tables//EN" 
"/usr/local/share/gnubg/met/met.dtd"

Try adding (substitute with the path returned by xmlCatalogDump):

  /* debug */
  fprintf( "resolve '%s'\n", pc );
  /* end debug */

  /* more debug */

  { FILE *pf;
    if ( ! ( pf = fopen( "/usr/local/share/gnubg/met/met.dtd", "r" ) ) {
        perror( "open" );
    }
    fclose(pf );
  }

  /* end more debug */
