Howdy,
Assuming you're using TL2010 try using the realscripts package: replace
\usepackage{fontspec}
by
\usepackage{fontspec, realscripts}
in the footnoteproblem.tex file and recompile. The fontspec package in TL2010
needs the realscripts and, possibly, the metalogo packages to fully duplicate
what was in xltxtra (which loaded fontspec, xunicode and the metalogo packages).
Good Luck,
