When I enable the debug, the references are correct, ie, the line pointed by the reference of the generated file and the line pointed by the reference of the original file do match. But then, the reference which lands in the po file does not match. It looks like a few '\n' are not seen by po4a. Indeed, it takes the reference which it should have taken a few lines before. So, I guess that nsgmls takes the liberty to remove some \n where they are not mandatory. I have no idea. I guess we should try to extract the reference recomputation and file inclusion out of Sgml.pm to TransTractor, and see if the problem still occure in Xml.pm, for example. The prototype of the function in TT should be: includefile($pre,$filename,$post); so that "bliblu<include href="toto"/>blobla" can be dealt with properly. The action would be to open the file in a @variable, generate the corresponding references ("refinmainfile:33 refinnewfile:44", first one=ref at which we found the inclusion request, second naturally incrementing the line number), and then unshiftline() all lines (begining with the last one) of the @variable into the document. The reference issue would also disappear since the stuff before the inclusion is already eaten when includefile is called, and since we unshiftline the stuff, we cannot mess with what comes afterward. We only have to generate the right ref for the included file, which is trivial.
