This isn't a FOP problem, but an XML misunderstanding.
Numerical character references, like œ, are *always* references to a
Unicode code point. In Unicode, character 156 is one of the C1 controls.
The lowercase o-e ligature is œ, or œ.
In the Windows western European character set, codepage 1252, the o-e
ligature is character 156. Do not use that as a reference for Unicode; it
is identical in the 0-127 and 160-255 ranges, but is entirely different in
128-159.
