Unfortunately, attribute sets cannot be added conditionally.  I've 
wanted to do this myself in the past.

If you change the attribute set to a called template (no other 
changes), then you can put the call to the template in the if.

Doing so takes away the cumulative nature of attribute sets in an 
import/include tree, but if that isn't a concern for you, then a 
called template should do the trick.

So, change:

   <xsl:attribute-set name="my:background-gray">
     <xsl:attribute name="background-color">#dddddd</
     <xsl:attribute name="border">#222222</
   </xsl:attribute-set>

to:

   <xsl:template name="my:background-gray">
     <xsl:attribute name="background-color">#dddddd</
     <xsl:attribute name="border">#222222</
   </xsl:template>

and use:

    <fo:table-row hyphenate="true">
       <xsl:if test="position() mod 2 = 0">
         <xsl:call-template name="my-background-gray"/>
       </xsl:if>
    ....

I hope this helps.
