Yeah, I didn't think it was the culprit. If you know the Java files related to opening images, I'll take a look. But I don't have a whole lot of time to track this down myself.
I looked in the fop.image directory which actually reads the images, but they seem to be handed an already open InputStream. I don't know which Java classes are opening the files originally.

PFMReader has nothing to do with images nor is it active when FOP is processing files. It is used to create XML font metric files. It doesn't hurt, that this particular file won't get closed.
