I mean that I cannot get values for "%n" and "%d{UNIX}" in a header or footer.
I was trying to use %n and it did not work so I tried %d{UNIX} just to see what would happen and it did not work either. Looking at the code, this is not surprising since the enhancement implemented in LOG4J-496 only covered look-ups. For my narrow case, the workaround is the more verbose ${sys:line.separator}, which is a system property look-up.
