[NTG-context] Arranging sometimes adds a zero

25 Nov 2024

      Hi Hans,

The recent discussion of imposition reminded me of an arranging bug that
I found a little while ago. MWE:

    \setuppapersize[A5,landscape][A4]
    \setuparranging[2TOPSIDE]

    %% Uncomment to "fix" the bug
    % \protected\expandafter\def\expandafter\fixedspace\expandafter{%
    %     \fixedspace%
    %     \setbox\scratchbox\emptybox%
    % }

    \starttext
        \dorecurse{4}{\samplefile{knuth}}
    \stoptext

With this example, there is an extra page on page 2 that contains
nothing but a "0" in the bottom left corner. Clearing \scratchbox before
the imposition code runs seems to fix this, but I wasn't able to trace
it any further.

Thanks,
-- Max
