Not a lot different than my guess at "78pt".  The file below breaks as 
expected, not sharing the same baseline.  I'm sure I've copied the 
information as you've documented.

How does it compare to your generated FO file?  Have you tried copy and 
paste of the generated FO file into a standalone snippet and rendering 
that?  That, too, would indicate ancestral inheritance issues.
