I seem to be getting the same results as you. Having looked at your PDF
you will find (as I do) that all your footnotes are at the very end of the
chapter. I haven't checked the stylesheet code yet but I used the following
definition, without success.
(define %bop-footnotes%
;; Make "bottom-of-page" footnotes?
#t)
When you have a hundred odd page chapter and the footnotes all turn up at the
end (and not at bop!), finding where the notes originate from is rather
difficult :-/

In case you missed it, Kevin Dunn just posted a fix for that to the list a
few hours ago!
