In Java at least, XInclude support has been in part of the parser
layer since JAXP 1.3 (SAXParserFactory and DocumentBuilderFactory
setXIncludeAware methods). There is no explicit support for
specifying XInclude processing in the Java StAX API, although it's
relatively straightforward to layer XInclude processing on top of a
stream reader using a StreamDelegate.
There is certainly support for XInclude in libxml2, I often use
xsltproc --xinclude
