Hi Ron,
The problem seems to be the last line of this:
> <fo:retrieve-marker
> retrieve-class-name="section.head.marker"
> retrieve-position="first-including-carryover"
> retrieve-boundary="page-sequence"/>
> <xsl:apply-templates select="." mode="title.markup"/>
The header.content template is processed in the context of the element
generating the page sequence. In this case, the article is the context
element. So select="." means selecting the article and generating its
title. If you delete that line, then the retrieve-marker is left to
produce the section title.
