Hi, Actually, this was a bug in DocBook XSL. The stylesheets sometimes use <fo:table> to layout certain elements. For segmentedlist, a layout table is used if the stylesheet parameter 'segmentedlist.as.table' is changed from the default 0 to 1. In this case, because the fo:table-columns use proportional-column-width(), it should set the table property 'table-layout' to 'fixed' instead of the default value of 'auto'. This bug has already been fixed in SVN and will be in the next release.

Process did not fail, and I was able to produce PDF. I thought it might be an issue with the FOP rendering, not the XML code. Your code looks fine to me.
