Hi gang,
Here is something strange:
========================================
\definenote[metanote][conversion=set 2]
\startbuffer[footnote]
test test test test test test test test
\footnote{This is a basic footnote.
\metanote{This is a footnote to a footnote.}}
test test test test test test test test
\footnote{This is another basic footnote.
\metanote{This is another footnote to a footnote.}}
test test test test test test test test test test test test test.
\stoplinenumbering%
\stopbuffer
{\typebuffer[footnote] \getbuffer[footnote]} \page
========================================
works, but
========================================
\startbuffer[footnote]
\definenote[metanote][conversion=set 2]

test test test test test test test test test test test test test.
\stoplinenumbering%
\stopbuffer
{\typebuffer[footnote] \getbuffer[footnote]} \page
========================================
will not compile:
