I've just had a look at this too, and I agree. There are several spurious 
extra definitions of xmlns:fo which seem to cause problems. This is not the 
only place that they have to be removed.

Zipping it up again, and re-trying, showed several other places in content.xml 
that were also erroneous in a similar manner, and also extra definitions of 
text-align elsewhere.

I'll send the patched file back to the originator directly, as this mailing 
list should strip attachments, or so I thought.

You probably forgot to give the -r option to zip so the directories were not 
properly zipped up. (As I did the first time too.) This would mean that the 
manifest would be missing, and hence it thought the file was corrupt. A 
clearer message would have helped there.
