xsltproc, fop 0.92, and formalpara

["Mike Broschinsky" <mbroschi@utah.gov>]

I have a document with a formalpara.

I run xsltproc against it using the 1.71.0 stylesheets to create an fo
file:

C:\Programs\xsltproc\xsltproc -o formalpara.fo
C:\Programs\docbook\style\docbook-xsl-1.71.0\fo\docbook.xsl
formalpara.dcbk

Then I run fop 0.92 against it to create a PDF:

C:\Programs\fop-0.92beta\fop.bat -fo formalpara.fo -pdf formalpara.pdf

The transformation to PDF fails quite spectacularly with the output
below at the end of this message. Has anybody else seen this behavior
before? Or am I just lucky?

XEP processes the file just fine. The small test document is:

<book>
  <chapter>
    <title>Test of xsltproc, fop 0.92 beta, DocBook XSL stylesheets
1.71.0, and the formalpara element</title>

    <para>Here is a regular paragraph</para>

    <formalpara>
      <title>Here is a formal paragraph</title>

      <para>Here is the text of the formal paragraph.</para>
    </formalpara>
  </chapter>
</book>
