I would probably do:

 <xsl:template match="lineannotation">
   <fo:inline font-style="italic" font-family="{$body.font.family}">
     <xsl:call-template name="inline.charseq"/>
   </fo:inline>
 </xsl:template>

You could also do:
 <xsl:template match="lineannotation">
  <fo:inline font-family="{$body.font.family}">
   <xsl:apply-imports/>
  </fo:inline>
 </xsl:template>
