Phillip: you say you are using Apache's proxying to access the REST i/f.
Could it be that Apache, unbeknown to you, is cacheing as well as proxying?
If that were the case, it could be delivering you a stale copy of the
composite document from its cache instead of re-querying the REST server to
get a fresh copy. I can't see how the REST server can possibly serialize
your master document without re-reading the XIncluded components...
