[xep-support] Problem with xinclude?

[Thomas Christensen]

It would seem that the command line version handles  xincludes with  
empty href differently that the one in XMLEditor.

I'm using xincludes with xpointer references to fetch a tag with a  
specified id within the same xml document, so that I can avoid typing  
the same text multiple times. This works by setting href="", but only  
if I run XEP from within XMLEditor. As I understand the specs, href=""  
is allowed if there is an xpointer reference.

<xi:include href="" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"  
xpointer="element(admin-ccc-tab-title)" />

If I take out these xincludes, the pdf is generated.

Any ideas?

Should I just go for docbook 5.0? Does that remove the pain with using  
xincludes with dtds (no validation)?
