Does the watermark image have to be a pixmap?  Or can it be in a
scalable format, eg. SVG or EPS (a handwritten image wouldn't be many
lines in either), as long as the FO->PDF translator can handle the
format?

I tried it on a debian testing/unstable (sarge) system, with libxml2
2.5.7 and libxslt 1.0.30, and I still didn't get the watermark.

My .fo files didn't contain the text "background-image".

I then looked at the settings in my customization layer:

  <!-- Autogenerate section numbers -->
  <xsl:param name="section.autolabel" select="1"/>
  <!-- HTML Toc level (both chunked and unchunked) -->
  <xsl:param name="toc.section.depth">5</xsl:param>

  <xsl:param name="paper.type" select="'A4'" />
  <xsl:param name="fop.extensions" select="1" />

Removing the paper.type parameter didn't make any difference, but
removing the fop.extensions did.

Now it works, even on RH8 with the older libxml2/libxslt, but with the
same scaling problems you mentioned.  I only get half the "F", and
lose the "T" completely.

Unfortunately removing fop.extensions also lost me the navigational
treeview when viewing the document in acroread.

Is there a way to get both?

Thanx!
