xinclude problem - docbook or xmllint?

[DavePawson <davep@dpawson.co.uk>]

Using docbook v5 and xmllint

source

<literallayout>
   <xi:include parse="text"
	      href="CatalogManager.properties">
     <xi:fallback><para><emphasis>FIXME:  MISSING XINCLUDE CONTENT - 
CatalogManager.properties</emphasis></para>
     </xi:fallback>
   </xi:include>
</literallayout>


If the @href contains an error (file does not exist)
then Jing reports

jing:
      [echo] Validate using Jing
      [java] /files/docbook/tmp.xml:2138:47: error: element "para" from 
namespace "http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"; not allowed in this context
      [java] Java Result: 1


which is ... sort of wrong? An error,
but incorrectly reported?

Correct the typo (i.e. correct filename) and all's well.

xmllint, Jing or ....

I'm expanding with xmllint, then using Jing to validate the resulting
expanded file
