This is a bug in the fo stylesheet.
It is generating invalid FO output when bibliography
is a child of a part element because it is failing
to start a page sequence for the bibliography.
I checked in this fix to fo/bibliography.xsl:

24c24
<     <xsl:when test="not(parent::*) or parent::book">
---
>     <xsl:when test="not(parent::*) or parent::part or parent::book">

That fixed the problem.
