Hello,
I implemented the suggestion of using the new xltxtra.sty and I am  
able to get my footnote
use back.  However, when I specify a main font for the document, then  
the footnote marks
are doubled up (one with the main font and one with the default for  
footnotes, I think). Here
is what I tried to get the doubling-up issue:
___________________
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{xltxtra}
\setmainfont{Times}
\begin{document}
a footnote\footnote{a test of footnote \XeTeX}
\end{document}
___________________
Commenting out the setmainfont command gets rid of the double footnote  
problem, but then I
can't specify what I want for my main font if different from the  
default.  Likewise, while using
KOMA-script, issuing either of the commands:
\setkomafont{footnote}{\fontspec{Times}}
\setkomafont{footnotelabel}{\fontspec{Times}}
produces the same doubling up of the footnote marks.  Is there a way  
to modify the new xltxtra.sty
to have it not repeat the marks when changing the main font (or  
komafonts)?

PS:
What I get as output is:
a footnote11
