This is not really intentional, as I had not noticed that there was such
a command in Babel. The right way to do would be of course *not* to use
Babel ;-) ... or to wait until "we" release the XeTeX-specific
alternative to Babel (see the long thread on this ML starting last week.
But I agree that both possibilities are not really helpful. In the next
release I shall use \renewcommand and issue a warning in case babel is
already loaded.
Thanks for pointing that out.
