Turns out it is _only_ a conceptual problem for me and not a lexical 
problem.  And I'm over it now.
The XSLT does not need the other base classes when translating an NXDL 
into an XSD.
(It will generate some include statements that call the base classes 
identified in the NXDL group elements.)
Conclusion, tempest in a teapot.
