James, This is just a guess, but perhaps you've included white-space where there doesn't need to be. white-space can be a bit tricky to manage. Although excess white-space is ignored, an extra [carriage-return] or [tab] in the wrong place may not be ignored (particularly if there's no white-space around it may produce unexpected (or unwanted) results.
I notice that you've got a couple of extra [carriage-returns] between some elements. Try removing them. If that doesn't work, try putting all of the template on one line: <xsl:template match="a"><xsl:element name="fo:inline"><xsl:element name="fo:basic-link"><xsl:attribute name="internal-destination"><xsl:value-of select="@idref" /></xsl:attribute><xsl:value-of select="document(@idref)/cnt-elm/title"/><xsl:text>on page </xsl:text><xsl:element name="fo:page-number-citation"><xsl:attribute name="ref-id"><xsl:value-of select="@idref" /></xsl:attribute></xsl:element></xsl:element></xsl:element></xsl:template> I'm guessing this'll solve it. Also, I don't see the "." anywhere. Since this template is being called from somewhere else, it might help to have that portion of your XSL-FL as well. Good luck!
