I've been puzzled for a while because my TL2010 distribution appears to
load Babel by default very early in the format file.

E.g.,:

    $ xelatex
    This is XeTeX, Version 3.1415926-2.2-0.9997.4 (TeX Live 2010)
      restricted \write18 enabled.
    **\relax
    entering extended mode
    LaTeX2e <2009/09/24>
    Babel <v3.8l> and hyphenation patterns for english,...

I don't think this started at TL 2010, Dominik; I have recollections
of seeing Babel mentioned early in the log file in earlier releases,
and in a sense it was part of what I looked for to see if TeX or
LaTeX had been invoked.
