I ran into this recently, too. (I.e. no, you're not imagining it.)
It seems to vary by version; see the test cases at 

  http://blackmesatech.com/2012/07/testcase/css-in-xsltforms.xhtml

The summary appears to be:  1.0RC loads external CSS
in the same way as beta3 and beta3RC before it, while
rev. 549 requires (as Dan McCreary has already suggested)
that the external files be wrapped in XML.

It may be relevant, of course, that none of the CSS files 
used in this test actually require pre-processing: they don't
do anything with the XForms namespace.

I am hoping that this is just a temporary glitch and that the
behavior will revert to the older pattern soon.
