at the token ends marks are stored as token lists but not directly 
accessible by a token itself as they get resolved during a split; a 
topmarks token is a cmd/chr combination that indicates that token 
(\topmarks) which then picks up a number (i noticed that i somehow lost 
picking up the number at the tex end but i'll fix that)

i'll add a tex.getmarks("top|bottom|...",<class number>) for whatveer 
use it might have and probably also backport that to luatex then
