Thanks, this did work using the updated fo/graphics.xsl.

Eg.

    <para>
     <figure>
      <title>Static Web</title>
      <mediaobject>
       <imageobject role="html">
        <imagedata fileref="diagrams/static.png"/>
       </imageobject>
       <imageobject role="fo">
        <imagedata scalefit="1" width="100%" contentdepth="100%"
         format="PDF" fileref="diagrams/static.pdf"/>
       </imageobject>
      </mediaobject>
     </figure>
    </para>

The off thing is that the updated fo/graphics.xsl appears to require  
that img.src.path be defined. I simply set this to "'./'", but I  
wonder if this isn't a bug in the CVS stylesheet.
