When processing a manual i found out that the page float macro was
overloaded by a wrong one, this is the one that works:
\def\OTRONEsomepagefloat[#1]%
{\global\setbox\collectedpagefloats=\vbox
{\unvbox\collectedpagefloats
\vbox to \teksthoogte
{\doifnotinset{\v!hoog}{#1}{\vfill}
\box\floatbox
\doifnotinset{\v!laag}{#1}{\vfill}}
\goodbreak}%
\doinsertfloatinfo}
[this one is in page-flt.tex but wrongly replaced in page-one.tex; the one
above does what you expect; opposite to the postpponing, it does not
collect floats on one page but puts them on separate pages; you can provide
high/low keys too]
