That's someone else's extension to DocBook. It's unfortunate that they
chose a docbook.org URI for their system identifier (there's clearly a
catalog involved so the fact that it was never stored there didn't
prevent it from working).

It appears to ship as part of the Oxygen distribution, so you probably
already have a copy. Look in

  {wherever Oxygen is installed}/frameworks/docbook/4.4/dtd/xinclude.mod

Hope that helps.

                                        Be seeing you,
