Hi Sabine, I think you will find a bug report to this effect in the Gnome Bugzilla. Search for "XInclude", you should be able to find it easily.
This is not to say "leave it, it's been reported" -- by no means, that report is actually years old. But possibly, if you add to it and elaborate on it, the day when it's marked as FIXED shall approach quicker than it would otherwise.
