Description

If the first child element of a fo:block is a white-space fo character a NullPointerException is thrown. I analyzed the code and the problem seems to be that the currentTextNode instance variable of FObjMixed is not reset (to null or the following sibling) after the Character object has been removed (due to white space handling).
