In [1] Bob Stayton describes how to use XInclude with DocBook. To my
annoyance that does not work with XXE [2], which will replace the the
xi:include element with the contents of the file intro.xml.

However [3] says thet XXE supports "xi:include elements pointing to a
single element."

So if we instead uses the following XInclude element, XXE works just fine.

<xi:include
    xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude";  href="intro.xml"
    xpointer="intro"/>
