Nevermind. I spent an evening hacking about with Java reflection so
that the xmlcalabash-print module supports FOP 1.x or FOP 2.x. Just
put the version of FOP you like in your classpath. Report an problems.

The FOP 2.x APIs are quite different and I don’t really understand
what they’ve done in terms of replacing the URI resolver. If you’re
relying on catalog resolution to find artifacts that FOP needs, you
may discover that FOP 2.x doesn’t do the right thing in XML Calabash.

If that happens, let me know and I’ll dig into it. But I’m not going
to do that proactively at the moment.
