I don't see the error log file attachment listed on the bug 
report page.  I only see fo.xsl.  How did you attach the log?

Regarding the XEP errors, it looks like the file was not 
processed with the xep.extensions parameter set to 1.  That 
parameter causes the stylesheet to output the url( ) syntax 
for external-destination.

The relative-align="baseline" is a valid property in most XSL-
FO processors, but it is not supported in FOP.  I don't know 
why FOP describes it as unknown, except that it is unknown 
to FOP.

Sam,

Please open up a separate issue for the XEP errors.

As far as the FOP problems, I think you may find that noboby
from the DocBook project has interest or time to investigate
them. The FOP developers have end-of-lifed the current
incarnation of FOP and are now working on a complete rewrite.

XEP produces [validation total: 56 warnings]:
    [warning] Attribute 'external-destination' cannot have a
value of "clisp.html#opt-ansi": should be either 'inherit'
or a URI: external-destination="url(...)".

attached fop.err
I am aware that many errors are "not implemented yet",
but there are some errors like
[ERROR] Unknown enumerated value for property
'relative-align': baseline
that appear to indicate problems with the FO produced by XSL.
