Excellent, Wolfgang. You are right. Many thanks. But if I may impose just a
little longer on your patience, let me explain my problem further.

In my example, that \page[makeup] to be removed stood for a key element in
the sequence
\page[makeup]
\stoptext
\stopcomponent
that typically closes a component in the prd file that I use to produce
volumes of a journal.

Without \page[makeup], when I run my prd file, the page number of a
component is appears on the last page of the preceding component. If I keep
the \page[makeup], each component is followed by a blank page (with header)
that precedes the title page of the new component.

In short my example replicated what I was seeing but fixing the example
does not fix the original problem. Is there a canonical way to close
components in MKIV that I have missed? (This env/prd setup *does* work in
MKII—I have 8 volumes to show for it.)

All best, Alan
