[xep-support] Problem with xinclude?

[Thomas Christensen]

Ok. Generating a complete all in one xml file will also improve the  
validation part of docbook 4.5+xincludes.
However - it works when I use XEP from within XMLEditor instead of the  
commmand line XEP!

The normal xincludes (ie. href actually points to a file) works in  
both places, and only the xpointer versions fails.

I'll try the preprocessor step option.
