Hi Oliver,

Adding xml:base attributes is required by the XInclude specification [1] 
in some situations, which is why they're there.

However, your problem is a common one.  Xerces has a feature
"http://apache.org/xml/features/xinclude/fixup-base-uris" (see [2])
which will omit the xml:base attributes when set to false.

[1] http://www.w3.org/TR/xinclude/#base
[2] 
http://xerces.apache.org/xerces2-j/features.html#xinclude.fixup-base-uris

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
