There may well also be a flaw in the ePub firmware -- I've not gotten that far yet. But when I looked at the underlying XML the links referencing the footnotes did not match the anchors for the footnotes. And that is a problem in the data conversion. Once that is fixed, I'll get to run into the firmware problem next.

Sigh. One bug at a time, I guess.
