Yes, this looks like a bug.  The relevant test in
fo/refentry.xml is:

<xsl:template match="refentry">
...
 <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="not(parent::*) or parent::reference">
      <!-- make a page sequence -->
      <fo:page-sequence hyphenate="{$hyphenate}"
                  
This says to start a page sequence
if the refentry is the root element,
or if it is a child of <reference>.
But that should be "not(parent::reference)"
because a reference element already started a page
sequence.
