That DOCTYPE on the ncx is actually legal as Doitsu pointed out, that is a bug in epubcheck 3 that has already been fixed.

4.1 Features Removed from EPUB 3
› 4.1.1 DTBook

DAISY DTBook [Z3986-2005] was an alternative syntax to XHTML 1.1 for Content Documents in OPS 2.0.1 [OPS2] in order to provide an option for more semantic, and thus more accessible, content. As HTML5 includes intrinsic semantic markup capabilities of a similar nature to DTBook, DTBook is no longer an alternative syntax in EPUB 3.
I do not know how one has to interpret this. What's the point of keeping a Doctype which references a removed feature? (Z3986). Without it, it's still possible to provide a toc.ncx for retro-compatibility purposes.
