==================================================
asks for section numbers in the left margin, separated from the section
title by the leftmargindistance. It works fine for the first four
sections. But sections 5 and 6 (on page 2) have the section number
shifted further left from the correct position by roughly 10pt or so.
It seems very sensitive to the layout. If I change the
leftmargindistance to 0.25in, the section numbers are all placed
correctly.
I noticed the problem on my default context version:
ConTeXt ver: 2013.05.28 00:36 MKIV current [from the Debian TL2013 pkgs]
It also happens with the live ConTeXt and with vanilla TL2013. (Though
it works fine with MKII.)
Is this a bug, or just a change in setuphead that I didn't take account of?
