Are using fileref of entityref for specifying location of images?

The problem is that profile-* stylesheet creates temporal copy of source
document in a memory and base URI is lost. In some cases this can be
solved with careful settings of parameters and current directory. You
have to inform us about layout of your files (DocBook source and images)
and command used for transformation in order to give you reasonable advice.

In any case, you can always stick to two pass profiling:
