[XeTeX] Question about polyglossia and babel

I've been puzzled for a while because my TL2010 distribution appears to load
Babel by default very early in the format file.

E.g.,:

$ xelatex
> This is XeTeX, Version 3.1415926-2.2-0.9997.4 (TeX Live 2010)
>  restricted \write18 enabled.
> **\relax
> entering extended mode

saying \listfiles shows only

 *File List*
>  article.cls    2007/10/19 v1.4h Standard LaTeX document class
>   size10.clo    2007/10/19 v1.4h Standard LaTeX file (size option)

so the call to babel must be in the fmt setup.  Will try to find it later
today.
