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.
