A week ago I posted here by accident part of a private conversation (in
Dutch) with Hans Hagen. I already apologized for this.

I appreciate your understanding!
From reactions I understood that other people are interested in this
subject of \xmlinclude too, but at that moment I could not produce a
coherent story.
After having produced some minimal (1) working, (2)  not working and
(3) crashing examples, I dare hope that my contribution of these will
be of some use. And perhaps they will spawn better suggestions and
better understanding of what happens, because I must confess I am
somewhat unsure with functional language behaviour, being raised with
Assembler, Algol, Pascal, Fortran, and so on ;-)
Find below my examples. One can call each of them by commenting out the
\starthiding.
The last one can be executed by removing the %%%%'s at the front of the
offending statement.
Again, I hope this post will be of some use.
