I agree with Jirka in principle: XIncludes aren't necessarily slower,
and even if they are, that's a tool problem rather than an XInclude
problem.
That said, we've experienced slowness with deep XIncludes on all of
our systems (lots of architectures, OSs, tools). I do not believe
their is anything broken in our toolchains.
