Thank you Jeremias, that's the solution! This 2-pass-approach is very cool, I can't imagine designs that aren't possible with it. If you can't wait for XSL-FO2.0, use this as a hack for layout-driven documents. I just summarize it for the list, because I think it can be helpful in other

It's the latter. :-) Have a look at the graphic in chapter 4.4.1 in XSL 1.0 and then chapter 5.3.2. Not an easy read (it caused many discussions). I'm practically certain that the border handling for normal blocks is correct. For block-container, I'm not that certain but still fairly confident
