What I was interested in doing was taking the usable
page width and dividing that by #columns so I could
use this derived fixed column width for each
<fo:table-column column-width="?"> tag.

I could use width="100%" on the table, but I thought
that the subsequent column-width="33%" was not
supported.

That's why I hinted to look at proportional-column-width().
A table wiith three columns of equal width would be roughly
 <fo:table width="100%">
   <fo:table-column column-width="proportional-column-width(1)"/>
   <fo:table-column column-width="proportional-column-width(1)"/>
   <fo:table-column column-width="proportional-column-width(1)"/>
   <fo:table-body
 ...
This can be combined with absolute measurements:
 <fo:table width="100%">
   <fo:table-column column-width="10mm"/>
   <fo:table-column
     column-width="20mm + proportional-column-width(1)"/>
   <fo:table-column
     column-width="proportional-column-width(10)"/>
   <fo:table-body
 ...
