Cleaning out the cobwebs, it's been a while. Just for completeness, this 
is the solution that I've used:

<!-- Generate the basic-link -->
<xsl:template name="basicLink">
    <xsl:param name="id"/>
<fo:basic-link external-destination=
"http://gpdb.warpspeed.com.au/TBD?{$id}">
ID: <xsl:value-of select="$id"/>
</fo:basic-link>
</xsl:template>

Add here is how I called it:

<fo:block>
    <xsl:call-template name="basicLink">
        <xsl:with-param name="id">
            <xsl:value-of select="//PDBID" />
        </xsl:with-param>
    </xsl:call-template>
</fo:block>
