Kelly and Arved, thank you your comments.

That was probably runningePagNumberCounter. I'll see if this is enough.

Big adventure to try to recreate my changes there.

So I found a few candidates:
- Configuration stuff (unlikely to cause problems, but inhibits using
  different configurations at the same time, right? Maybe it's time to
  have another look at Avalon.)
- MessageHandler stuff (similar to above)
- FopImageFactory m_urlMap (Maybe. I've had some error message with
  images but that could be my special URL type)
- ImageReader formats (no real candidate, but the variable should be
  filled in a static block, not in the constructor)
