This would be bad, because I will need both.

This works, it says "Calling Unix command: bibtex Multilayer.fb.aux"

I believe that that has been fixed

extra_tools = $c "unix,bibtex %b.fb,bibtex-footbib,tex,aux

This is technically more correct and gives "Calling Unix command:  
bibtex Multilayer.fb"
