Karl,
put an absolute container into the header for the first column, and
position it outside the area (that is, with negative bottom attribute).

XSL 1.1 has table markers for that; XEP will support them eventually.
For now, a trick would be to cover the (cont.) on the first page with
another absolute-container at the beginning of the first cell. Should
work in most implementations.
