You cannot embed formatting objects into fo:instream-foreign-object content. 
According to the spec [1] content of fo:instream-foreign-object is considered 
to be non-XSL. You can try to achieve the result by using xsl-fo only (use 
borders to draw a rectangle etc) or try to interleave svg image and 
fo:page-number using absolute positioning.
