Part of the problem is that xmlroff currently doesn't cope if the URL
in 'src="url(...)"' is unquoted.  I modified libfo-compat.xsl to add
quotes when omitted since I've yet to work out the best way to modify
fo-expr-eval.c to handle this case.

The other remaining failed assertions are because xmlroff expects
'content-width' and 'content-height' to be integers since that was how
you had to specify the size of an fo:external-graphic.  Graphics don't
work at all now, so you'll also get a polite message telling you that
fo:external-graphic support is still being worked on.

So the next thing to do is work on fo:external-graphic support...

Tony.
