  If the second argument is specified, automatically-numbered
  footnotes begin again with 1 whenever a first-level heading
  is encountered.  This is most useful with the "section-page"
  page numbering scheme.  As an example, the input line

       .FD "" 1

  maintains the default formatting style and causes footnotes
  to be numbered afresh after each first-level heading in a
  document.
