Hm, I was wrong, as I cannot reproduce a problem now, if I leave only 
XLPage(). I was so sure, that I wrote it in the Cookbook, but now it works as 
it should. Good.

I have however a reason to load xlpage-utf-8.php separately. The reason is 
exactly because the Site/XLPage-fr or whatever page is editable by users with 
enough privileges, and if one of these users inadvertantly breaks or removes 
the line in that page, here we go back to (2.) above, and the whole site may 
become unusable.

And, when the script was once loaded, it will not be loaded again the second 
time by XLPage(), so, it doesn't hurt to do it.

Thanks,
