Thanks, Chris. I got this to work as advertised, used Google to get the exact syntax correct. A question -- Why does a fo:marker have to be the first child of a fo:flow?

A fo:marker must be the first child of the parent FO, which is not necessarily a fo:flow. You can attach a marker to basically every FO which may be a descendant of a fo:flow, with the restriction that a marker must not be a descendant of another marker.

Or is this a design compromise for 0.20.5 in lieu of the re-factored development branch?
I'm not aware that there is such a restriction in FOP. Perhaps
you got an error message because you had whitesp[ece before a marker
in a mixed content context, like
  <fo:block>
    <fo:marker> ...</fo:marker>
    foo...
The spec explicitely forbids this, check
  http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/xslfo/slice6.html#fo_marker
You have to write
  <fo:block><fo:marker> ...</fo:marker>
     ... foo ...
in this case
