Hi,

FOP doesn't handle directly XSLT, but resulting XSL-FO.
If an XSLT produces an XSL-FO that is not handled correctly by FOP,
that be caused by, either...
 - not implemented feature (see FOP Compliance page [1])
   (for example, in your XSLT *FIGURE*.xsl, I've found the fo:change-bar-begin
   but there can be other things)
 - old FOP version,
 - unresolved URI,
 - missing dependence,
 - etc.

In order to get better and quicker help, you should provide some material:
 - FOP version
 - environment (OS, JVM, etc.)
 - how FOP is run (CLI, embedded, ...)
 - short XSL-FO (not XSLT) that points the issue
 - trace, or at least precise description of what you get Vs expect
