Thanks,
I am trying to work out why it worked with DTD/ENTITYs and not with XInclude
- presumably because the filename of the DTD was regarded as a baseURI or
similar? The XML files starts:

<!DOCTYPE template SYSTEM
"src/main/resources/org/xmlcml/cml/converters/compchem/compchem.dtd" [...

which is relative to the working directory (".") So
"src/main/resources/org/xmlcml/cml/converters/compchem" should act as a
BaseURI...
