There are two versions of Linux Libertine, one is otf (O), one is ttf 
(without O). I get the fonts to show, this is _not_ the problem, I get 
old style numbers, this is also _not_ the problem, but I cannot get 
normal superscript numbers when I chose old style numbers. I remember 
somebody had a code to make footnote marks except superscript numbers, 
maybe I can get it to work with this, but I dont find the code anymore.  
I guess now that it is really a problem with the otf tables: the mapping 
tells normal numbers to be mapped to superscript numbers if demanded, 
but it has been forgotten to be implemented also for old style numbers 
(maybe beacause there are no superscript old style numbers). I cannot 
confirm this myself but think it is the reason for this behaviour.

Greetings
