Footnote numbering broken ?

[Steffen Wolfrum]

Hi,

shouldn't the following work?


\starttext

\setnumber[footnote]{3}

test\footnote{x}

\stoptext

There seems to be a typo in core-not. The following works

\unprotect
\definenote[\v!footnote]
\protect

\starttext

\setnumber[footnote]{3}
test\footnote{x}

\stoptext

In core-not.tex the spaces should be removed from

\definenote [\v!footnote  ]
\definenote [\v!endnote   ] [\c!location=\v!none] % else no break

a\relax a
a\relax        a

Why does Steffen's code not work, while it works if I add 
\definenote[\v!footnote]? Another strange thing is that the following 
works

\starttext

\footnote{test}

\setnumber[footnote]{3}
x\footnote{test again}

\stoptext

But the footnote number is not incremented in

\starttext
\setnumber[footnote]{3}
x\footnote{test}
\stoptext

Could it because of the loading order of file?
