And I can make the line vanish! Just insert \newpage after the "chapter" 1.2 
and its introductory text which end with "and the personal endings:", later 
followed by a longtable. I.e., I put the \newpage between this text and the 
longtable. It surely is not the the correct answer, but it shows that there is 
something faulty…

Now, more exact, using the TEX source file from your last ZIP archive. When you 
put the \newpage at the end of every line of table (4) (for the last line, the 
one with the italic "etc." only in the left column, you have to use 
\\\newpage), then the footnote line on the next page disappears.

This can be, as Ross supposed, an issue with longtable.

I'd recommend to load fontspec with the [no-math] option. This can reduce much 
unnecessary tracing output (and you're not doing maths). Add *some* tracing 
command, taken from here:

        http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/60491/latex-tracing-commands-list

(didn't search much) (or \tracingall) to the preamble, save the file 
(\tracingmacros=1 and \tracinggroups=1 might be OK). Then run xelatex on the 
file. Save the LOG file under a new name. Now add the \newpage and save. Run 
xelatex on that file version. Save the LOG file under a new name. Run diff on 
the two LOG files and try to understand in the next hours or days what makes 
the differences in the 1,500 lines of output, causes the footnote line… (I'm 
not through yet)
