Well, it looks to me as if the expansion of @makefntext tries
to perform an assignment to \parindentFFN (even though
you omitted an explicit assignment operator); surely this is
not what you intended ?
I intended to have an indentation before the footnote marker.
Ah, but what you have, rather than an indentation, is the intended
/dimension /of the intendation (ten inches, in this case). If you want
this dimension to be used to effect an indentation, then you need to
add a command to cause an indentation (of specified dimension)
to take place. I don't speak LaTeX, but you might consider (e.g.)
\renewcommand \@makefntext [1]%
{%
\leavevmode \hbox to \parindentFFN {}\@thefnmark.~#1%
}
or something along those lines.
