Perhaps the value of org-blank-before-new-entry is getting clobbered?For a start, this: org-footnote.el:(defvar org-blank-before-new-entry nil) ; silence byte-compiler is bogus (the relevant syntax is (defvar foo)).
Glenn, I believe you found it. Applying the change in org-footnote.el.patch (attached) corrects the vertical spacing issue I noticed. Steve
