docbook-xsl V1.62.0: xsltproc produces bad margins in FO
Hi,

Weird, I've found no evidence that anyone else has this problem: A
stupid, tiny DocBook file produces FO output containing faulty entries
such as:

  margin-left="1in - -4pc"

Without checking exhaustively, it seems that all margin-lefts are like
that, and no other margins.

A variablelist has a related problem; it creates

  provisional-distance-between-starts="4em * 0.50+1em"

in the FO output. The effect is that everything after the first space
in these value strings appears literally in the output (PassiveTeX).

This problem did not yet exist in docbook-xsl V1.61.3.

Let me know if you have trouble reproducing it, and I'll send you all
the gory details. Here is my command line:

xsltproc --nonet --stringparam passivetex.extensions 1 -o testa.fo /local/usr/share/sgml/docbook/docbook-xsl-1.62.0/fo/docbook.xsl testa.xml

Thanks,
Justus
