page-masters for different 1st page

I now have a requirement for a document to have different content in the
region-after for the first page.
I've thought about using different <fo:simple-page-master> elements for this
and also using something like:

<fo:page-sequence-master master-name="seq" >
   <fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives>
      <fo:conditional-page-master-reference master-name="first"
page-position="first" />
      <fo:conditional-page-master-reference master-name="rest"
page-position="rest" />
   </fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives>
</fo:page-sequence-master>

You are nearly there... You can name your region-after within the two 
simple-page-masters differently and assign different content to them.

<fo:layout-master-set>
     <fo:simple-page-master page-height="297mm" page-width="210mm"
         margin-top="40mm" margin-bottom="10mm"
         margin-left="25mm" margin-right="25mm"
         master-name="PageMasterOneOne">
         <fo:region-body margin-top="40mm" margin-bottom="45mm"/>
         <fo:region-after extent="40mm" display-align="after"
             region-name="footerTOC1"/>
     </fo:simple-page-master>
     <fo:simple-page-master page-height="297mm" page-width="210mm"
         margin-top="25mm" margin-bottom="10mm"
         margin-left="25mm" margin-right="25mm"
         master-name="PageMasterOneTwo">
         <fo:region-body margin-top="30mm" margin-bottom="25mm"/>
         <fo:region-after extent="20mm" display-align="after"
             region-name="footerTOC2"/>
     </fo:simple-page-master>

     <fo:page-sequence-master master-name="PageMasterOne">
         <fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives>
             <fo:conditional-page-master-reference
                 master-reference="PageMasterOneOne"
                 page-position="first"/>
             <fo:conditional-page-master-reference
                 master-reference="PageMasterOneTwo"
                 page-position="rest"/>
         </fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives>
     </fo:page-sequence-master>
<fo:layout-master-set>


<fo:page-sequence master-reference="PageMasterOne">
     <!-- Static content for page 1 -->
     <fo:static-content flow-name="footerTOC1">
         <fo:block>Content of footer for first page.</fo:block>
     </fo:static-content>
     <fo:static-content flow-name="footerTOC2">
         <fo:block>Content of footer for all other pages.</fo:block>
     </fo:static-content>

     <!-- Content for page sequence. -->
     <fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body">

You're almost there. All you have to do now is apply a non-default
region-name to the region-after of one of the simple-page-masters. Then
you create a new fo:static-content and set the flow-name to this other
name. Example (uninteresting stuff is left out):

<fo:simple-page-master master-name="first">
  <fo:region-body />
  <fo:region-after region-name="first-region-after"/>
</fo:simple-page-master>
<fo:simple-page-master master-name="rest">
  <fo:region-body/>
  <fo:region-after/>
</fo:simple-page-master>
[..]
<fo:static-content flow-name="first-region-after"/>
[..]
<fo:static-content flow-name="xsl-region-after"/>
