Thanks for the suggestion. Yes, I did test with FOP-trunk (rev. 1345838):
same result. To make sure, I've just tested with the snapshot you suggested,
also with the same result.

In the meantime I've managed to isolate the problem in a simpler test case
(attached:  http://old.nabble.com/file/p33962613/fop_hangs.fo fop_hangs.fo
). The problem seems to lie when a block stretches a page due to the amount
of footnotes it contains. This is illustrated in the test case: it fails as
long as the span of text containing the last footnote isn't commented out. 

I'll check if this is connected with bugs 
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45159 45159  and 
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=47424 47424 , and if the
patch at  https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=48397 48397 
can help me out.

This is really a showstopper. Does anyone know a possible workaround on
XSL-FO level (I've tried all kinds of alternatives without success) that
could at least make the PDF rendering finish?

Kind regards,

Ron
