I am just interested to know whether it is possible to use XInclude
with or without xpointer; the original poster just tried to use
it without and asked why it didn't work; he was advised to use xpointer;
another implementation I know about that supports xpointer (and
seemed to work last time I checked) is jd.xinclude; I've just asked
whether it works indeed or not.

I am being frequentially asked these days to support xinclude in programs
I am delivering; I am trying to find out what tools can be used for it.
