Hi, 

I would like to use <programlistingco> for some XML
code.
Is it possible at all? 

yes, with two caveats.

The easy way.

<programlisting>
<![CDATA[
<pox/>
]]>
</programlisting>

Easy, but no markup within the programlisting element.
If you need that, you'll have to escape all your xml

s/&/&amp;/
s/</&lt;/

is not too bad.

Then you can do things like

 <example id="xslfo-CHP-2-EX-1" label="2-1">
         <title>A basic page specification</title>
         <programlisting>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt;
&lt;fo:root xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format"&gt; 
           <co id="xslfo-CHP-2-EX-1.1"/>
&lt;fo:layout-master-set&gt; 
           <co id="xslfo-CHP-2-EX-1.2"/>
      &lt;fo:simple-page-master
      page-height="11in"
      page-width="8.5in"
   master-name="only"&gt; 
            <co id="xslfo-CHP-2-EX-1.3"/>
         &lt;fo:region-body
   region-name="xsl-region-body" 
            <co id="xslfo-CHP-2-EX-1.4"/>
            margin="0.7in" /&gt;
   &lt;fo:region-before 
            <co id="xslfo-CHP-2-EX-1.5"/>
            region-name="xsl-region-before"
            extent="0.7in" /&gt;
         &lt;fo:region-after
   region-name="xsl-region-after" 
            <co id="xslfo-CHP-2-EX-1.6"/>
           extent="0.7in" /&gt;
      &lt;/fo:simple-page-master&gt;
   &lt;/fo:layout-master-set&gt;
&lt;fo:page-sequence master-reference="only" format="A"&gt; 
           <co id="xslfo-CHP-2-EX-1.7"/>
      &lt;fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body"&gt;
      &lt;fo:block &gt;Some base content, containing an inline warning, 
           <co id="xslfo-CHP-2-EX-1.8"/>
           &lt;fo:inline &gt;Warning: &lt;/fo:inline&gt;Do not touch 
blue paper,
           a fairly straightforward piece requiring emphasis
          &lt;fo:inline font-weight="bold"&gt;TEXT&lt;/fo:inline&gt;, and
           some instructions which  require presenting in a different
           way, such as &lt;fo:inline font-style="italic"&gt;Now light
           the blue paper&lt;/fo:inline&gt;.
         &lt;/fo:block&gt;
      &lt;/fo:flow&gt;
   &lt;/fo:page-sequence&gt;
&lt;/fo:root&gt;
</programlisting>

I.e. insert callouts to reference your code?
I like that. Helps explain yards of code.
