I can confirm that this is a limitation in the Android SDK. Eclipse suffers the 
same problem, it can't handle layout files which have a BOM.
I'm going to add a check for this specific issue and show a more meaningful 
error message when it happens.
To fix it you can just remote the<?xml..>  header in the included file, or you can 
remove the BOM by opening the file with the hex editor (Open With->Hex Editor) and 
deleting the first 3 bytes.

The problem seems to be with files which have a byte order mark. MonoDevelop 
creates new files without a BOM, and  that's why it then works. At least I know 
what's the issue now.

I am unable to reproduce this problem. Can you send me a sample layout
(+included files) I could use to reproduce the error?

So I was going to give you an example, but I wanted to simply it first.  So
what I found was very strange indeed.

If I created a NEW layout using "rightclick on layout->add->new
item->Android Layout"  and then copied the contents from an included layout
that didn't work, and then changed the include to refer to the new file.
Voila it started to work.

The contents of the new file are identical to the original file, just that
it is a different file.  If I change the include to point back to the old
file, it fails again.

So I suspect, if I give you the files, it will probably work for you.

The project was converted from a Mono 4.0.6 project, so it might have
something to do with it.  Not sure what is confusing it, but there is a
workaround. :)

I also am using VS2010 on Win7 x64.
