Yes, the lang parameter is there. But by default, there seems to be no hyphenation at all
(param.xsl seems to have the correct settings: <xsl:param name="hyphenate">true</xsl:param>).

I now changed an entry in fotex.xmt
from "\gdef\FOhyphenate{false}"
to "\gdef\FOhyphenate{true}"

Hyphenation seems now to work. But is this the trick ?
