  Hum, it's clearly forbidden for external unparsed entities
    http://www.w3.org/TR/xinclude/#notations
    "It is a fatal error to include notation items with the same name,
     but which are not determined to be duplicates."

Maybe libxml2 check is too strong now. It doesn't seems to be a good idea any
way to reuse entities name for different content if you end up with a single
document.
