[xep-support] Problem when using block-container with absolute-position="fixed" in static content

[Mattias Moltkesson]

Hi!

I'm having a problem with disappearing block-containers in static
content when the block-containers absolute-position is "fixed" and the
page has a reference-orientation other than 0. The problem is
demonstrated by the FO below. Am I doing something wrong, or is XEP to
blame?

        <!-- Page-master with reference-orientation 0 -->

                    Text in a block-container with
absolute-position="fixed". Disappears if the
                    simple-page-master has a reference-orientation other
than 0.
                </fo:block>
            </fo:block-container>

                <fo:block>
                    Text in a block-container with
absolute-position="absolute". Works fine regardless of 
                    reference-orientation.
