As it turns out the problem is caused by the tools: "xsltproc --xinclude"
does not insert 
 when it sees \r\n while "xmllint --xinclude" does. I
don't know why there is a difference as they are both coming from the
libxml2 project. As I couldn't find a command line option which I could set
for xmllint to ignore the \r I probably have to use another trick.
