+% \subsection{The \pkg{bigfoot} first aid}
+%
+%    The \pkg{bigfoot} packages makes the assumption that two
+%    \cs{newinsert} allocations have a recognisable order in their
+%    numbers, the second one has a lower number. This was correct in
+%    the classic \TeX{} implementation but with the extended
+%    allocation possibilities of all modern engines is no longer the
+%    case and there is a point where the allocations take a ``jump''
+%    breaking the odering assumption. These days we are fairly close
+%    to that point and depending on how many packages are loaded
+%    before \pkg{bigfoot} the package breaks.
+%
+%    This firstaid therefore jumps over the problematical point by
+%    pushing the count allocation to a safe value if necessary.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\AddToHook{file/after/bigfoot.sty}{%
+   \ifnum\count10<\insc at unt
+     \global\count10=\insc at unt
+   \fi
+%    \end{macrocode}
+%    We also correct a bug that \pkg{bigfoot} tries to shift mark
+%    registers, but in \LaTeX{} (at least since 2015) the allocation
+%    number is not 266, so it does that to a random number of mark
+%    registers (which sometimes blows up depending on the value in 266).
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+    \def\FN at allmarks#1{\@elt{#1}%
+      \ifnum#1<\count256 %<--- problem: 266 isn't the counter for marks
+        \expandafter\FN at allmarks\expandafter{\number\numexpr#1+\@ne}%
+        \fi}%
