Description

This patch solves the problem of an infinite loop in footnotes as reported in FOP-1678.

The infinite loop occurred in org.apache.fop.layoutmgr.PageBreakingAlgorithm.getFootnoteSplit(int, int, int, int, boolean).

This patch does not solve the problem of another infinite loop in footnotes as reported in bugs 48063 and 48162. This infinite loop occurs in org.apache.fop.layoutmgr.PageBreakingAlgorithm.createFootnotePages(KnuthPageNode). The test attached to 48063 is converted to a testcase and added to the list of disabled testcases.
