Lots of problems in mkiv

Lots of problems in mkiv

[richard.stephens]

I've recently started using mkiv because of the fonts, but I have found
lots of things that don't work.
The trouble is, I don't know if it's just me, or whether I need to go back
to mkii until things settle down.

Can someone, PLEASE, tell me if they get any of the following problems with
mkiv (I've included code snippets):
Everything below works perfectly in mkii.

1) References to equations appear as '??' in the final document

\placeformula[eq:pythag]
\startformula
    a^2 = b^2 + c^2
\stopformula
Pythagoras proposed \in{equation}[eq:pythag].


2) References to footnotes appear as '??' inside
\startlocalfootnotes...\stoplocalfootnotes

\startlocalfootnotes
This has a note.\footnote[fn]{Footnote.}
See note \note[fn].
\stoplocalfootnotes

3) References to sections are repeated (e.g. reference to section 1 appears
as '11' or ref to section 1.1 appears as '1.11.1')

\section[sec:one]{Section one}
It was in \in{section}[sec:one].

4) \digits command falls over at periods or commas with "\textfont1 is
undefined (character 58)."

\digits{1.6}

5) \infull command does not work for abbreviations: falls over with
"Missing } inserted."

\abbreviation {KF} {Kalman filter}
Rudolph Kalman invented the \infull{KF}.


Please help!!

Richard

Same thing here with 1,3,4,5.
2 works fine.

I've noticed also 3 problems since I switched to MKIV:

a) Floatcaptions are no longer placed:

\externalfigure[dummy]
\placefloatcaption[figure]{blabla}

b) \start...\stopregister results in an error:

hmmpf\startregister[index][identifier]{Hmmpf}\page[yes]
\dorecurse{2}{hmmpf\page[yes]}
hmmpf\stopregister[index][identifier]\page[yes]
\placeregister[index][compress=no]

c) I'm not able to build caption numbers with the chapter number as prefix:
I want for example "Fig. 2.6" where "2" is the chapter number and "6"
the figure number by chapter. I tried all the options I found for
setupcaptions (at least I think so), but I dont get the chapter number
in the caption.

Thanks in advance for any hint
