There is a 2011 commit that sets the header level to 4:
=================
commit 23b1df66c3fe0215bc94d55a22c832b7a697ac89
Author: Patrice Dumas <pertu...@free.fr>
Date: Thu Nov 3 23:54:51 2011 +0000
Use FOOTNOTE_END_HEADER_LEVEL for the level of footnote headings when
footnotestyle is end, and FOOTNOTE_SEPARATE_HEADER_LEVEL when footnotes
are on a separate element.
Set defaults to 4 for those variables.
git-svn-id: svn://127.0.0.1/svn_repo/texinfo/trunk@4277
39fee189-59d7-47db-b5d4-205258b72aed
=================
And on line 1643 there is a:
$foot_lines .= '<h3>' .
"<a id=\"$footid\"
href=\"$document_filename#$docid\">($number_in_doc)</a></h3>\n"
. $footnote_text;
that sets that <h3> to the footnote text but I can't find a reference in the
commit history about that. There are two references to <h3> in the commit
history but they don't seem related...
