CSS2 Reference Not Normative?

I'm wondering how XSL can normatively require use of CSS2 semantics (e.g.,
automatic table layout strategy) and not specify CSS2 as a normative reference?

For example, under 6.7.3 fo:table there appears:

"These areas have a z-index controlling the rendering order determined in
accordance with 17.5.1 of the CSS2 specification."

and

"The automatic table layout and fixed table layout is defined in 17.5.2 of the
CSS2 specification."

Regards,
Glenn
