It's called 'libfo-compat.xsl' and should be installed when you
install xmlroff.

It munges or drops stuff that xmlroff doesn't yet support.  It's
really just a rename of the stylesheet I did to get output from the
samples from the XML 2003 XSL-FO town hall and is still a bit too
specific to those samples (down to matching values of some shorthands
used in the samples).

Patches to libfo-compat.xsl would be accepted.
