Hi Andreas, I think you are right, the current FO is not in its ancestors list. Reading back REC 1.1/5.10.4, the default value for this function is the same property. In this case, the nearest ancestor-or-self specified property does a circular ref, but the nearest ancestor specified property should not. In extension, that should be the same thing when the function is used with an argument. HTH, Pascal

FWIW: the fix (if necessary) is very simple, see
o.a.fop.fo.PropertyList.java line 191. I think the iteration needs to
start with the parentPropertyList instead of 'this', but I'm not 100%
sure...
