I got into XSL-FO with "XSL-FO", Dave Pawson, O'Reilly, ISBN 0-596-00355-2 and his explanation of fo:static-content clarifies this nicely, including the fact that it is the layout that is static, not the content. See his section on running headers, beginning on page 152.

 

However, this was what gave me the problem I posted recently against 0.20.5rc, where J. Pietschmann pointed me to the fix in later versions.
