Two anomalies

Two anomalies

[John Culleton]

1: I created a sidebar in the margin and gave it
a grey backgound with:
\startmarginblock
\startbackground
\setuptolerance[horizontal,tolerant]
(etc)
 A total of 13 lines were typeset. The background screen was
 interrupted with a white bar between line 11 and 12.

 2: I used the following near the end of a page:

 \startTEX

\def\chapter#1{#1}

\stopTEX

This typeset correctly but two more lines were typeset past the
bottom of the text area (as verified by \showframe.)

I can live with the first and kludge my way around the second
but I thought someone should know :-|

Just discovered that the two problems were related. If I eliminate the
marginal note the page breaking problem goes away.  So there is
some occult relationship --- problem 1. somehow causes problem
2.
