You need to use xinclude to include one document inside another. If
you look at 'doc/src/boost.xml' you can see the markup used for this
(the 'xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"' attribute on the
root element and the 'xi:include' tags). When calling xsltproc you
need to use the '--xinclude' command line parameter to tell it to
process these tags. It also has a path flag which can specify where to
find these files although its implementation is a bit quirky.

I hope that helps,
