I have changed it so that the template that figures out the width uses a

width?

Use something like <xsl:if test="ancestor::table"> Better yet, always pass the current block width down through all templates matching block level elements, and pass the page width in the top level template.

I mean

<xsl:template match="table|tbody">
  <xsl:param name="blockwidth"/>
  <fo:table>
  ...
   <xsl:call-template name="process-col-width">
     ...
     <xsl:with-param name="parentblockwidth"
          select="$blockwidth"/>
    ...
  <fo:table-body>
    <xsl:apply-templates>
     <xsl:with-param name="blockwidth"
          select="$blockwidth"/>
    </xsl:apply-templates>
  </fo:table-body>


Watch out for default templates, they will ruin it.
