[xep-support] Problems with fo tags written via disabled output-escaping

Hello,

I'm using XEP v3.4 on the command-line.

Due to the input structure of my XML file, I need to write an fo:block
start-tag in one template, and write the end-tag in another. I've done this
via <xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes">&lt;fo:block&gt;</xsl:text> etc.
etc. I ended up with the layout I wanted in the output PDF, but the fo:block
start and end tags were passed through as escaped text as well.

I then wrote the FO file separately with Saxon 6.4.1, validated it
successfully with XEP, and wrote the output PDF. This resulted in the layout
I wanted, without the escaped <fo:block> tags.

Could anyone shed some light on this behaviour? I thought I saw saxon.jar in
the /lib directory...is that not taking care of the XSLT transformation?

Thanks for any info,
Doug
