See reference-orientation property: http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/slice7.html#reference-orientation

This property does not apply to table-cells.


I am amazed. The property applies to all areas which generate
a reference area (see URL above). Table cells generate reference
areas:
  The fo:table-cell formatting object generates one or more
  normal reference-areas.

Well, it's probably one more spec contradiction, like recently discovered block's width. Although the property definition says it "is applied only on formatting objects that establish a reference-area", spec does mention reference-orientation as property of fo:simple-page-master, fo:region-body, fo:region-before, fo:region-after, fo:region-start, fo:region-end, fo:block-container and fo:inline-container only.
