Re: [docbook-apps] xpointer woes

Hi Raymond,
This is really an issue for Oxygen.  XIncludes are resolved before the
DocBook stylesheets are applied.  They must be resolved by an XInclude-aware
parser.  Oxygen has such a parser, but I've found that XInclude support
varies among the various parsers.  You should raise this issue on the Oxygen
mailing list or support group.
