Hi Jirka,
Do the current DocBook XSL stylesheets support <xref xlink:href="#foo"/> ?

You can either silently ignore such error messages when validating
chapter alone, or use olink linking:

If you are using DocBook V5, you can use <xref xlink:href="#foo"/>
instead of <xref linkend="foo"/> to skip validation of ID/IDREFs.
