I don't know alot about petroleum chemistry but I would assume that these two chemicals are the reason why people say it's not good to wash your hands with gasoline. They are in such a small amount though that many think it is fine as long as you don't do it every day or something.

pay particular attention to the "Information" section, and the home brew octane booster part.

I've used xylene quite a few times in the GN. Never had a problem with it.
If you really want to learn about it, head here and do a search on it. You will find more information on it than you can handle.
And I don't think anyone there has ever had a problem with it.
