  Hum, the concept of validity is defined at parse time (c.f. the
XML specification) while XInclude is based on the Infoset, i.e. 
the set of information gathered by parsing XML files.

  Right. But XInclude can also work with fragment[s] of B or even
with B being a text file.

  This has been reported and is fixed in CVS :-) I think it's time
to ship yet another release. Could you try the cvs snapshot 
     ftp://xmlsoft.org/cvs-snapshot.tar.gz

  and check that it is fixed ?

  thanks for the report,

Daniel
