Henri’s example fails for me in the same way that Floris describes.
However, when I remove either or both of the following lines from the
first \setuplayout directive, all is well.
header=0mm,
footer=0mm,
In this example, the complete unnamed layout can simply be removed.
It is not clear why Floris has two layouts defined and active. One is
stepping on the other. I do not know if the results of applying multiple
layouts should be additive like this, or not, but I would think that
they should not be.
