<DIV>When using XeTeX, it's better to use polyglossia rather than babel; the latter has some issues if run in a Unicode-based environment, and polyglossia was designed as a replacement for it. The issues I have heard about do not involve Spanish hyphenation, but I would nonetheless give polyglossia a try.</DIV>
