      You have two requirements in your example unfulfilled by XSL-FO 1.0:

         (1) there is no page condition that would test true for "the second last
             page in a page sequence" regardless of whether the last page is blank
             or not; and

         (2) there is no formatting object that would give you on any given page
             the page number of the next page.
