My apologies for the confusion Earnie.  Yes, the XML Sitemap is a fantastic module and includes a sub-module that allows you to define custom URLs.  The issue I ran into is that the XML Sitemap Custom sub-module attempts to verify all the custom URL paths you enter.  This doesn't work very well when the physical path to the static file from the Drupal root is "../example.com/test.htm" and your rewrite rules map the "http://example.com/test.htm" URL to the file.  Using the physical path above with the XML Sitemap Custom module, the URL produced in the sitemap.xml file is "http://example.com/example.com/test.htm" (adds the full path of the file to the URL).  I am only aware of this issue when you include files from a directory outside the Drupal root using rewrite rules and want them to appear at the root of the website.

Again, sorry for the confusion.

To clear some possible confusion: XML Sitemap module provides a
sub-module to allow you to add custom URL so that your static pages can
be added.
