Subject: columns in footnotes broken
Date: Sun, 2 Nov 2008 08:56:40 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <A511E975-3BB2-4253-A77F-CB0D48FF22F4@gmail.com> (raw)

The manual describes a way to set footnotes in columns:  
\setupfootnotes[n=number] (Context: the manual (Nov. 12, 2001), pp.  
101-2)

That has caused errors for me in the 2008-10-23 or 2008-10-31 releases.

TEST DOCUMENT:
