+ OBSOLETE: do not use in new documents.
+ This package will do nothing in LaTeX formats after 2015/01/01
+ as the fixes that it implements were incorporated into fixltx2e
+ package, which is itself obsolete as since the 2015/01/01 release
+ these fixes are in format.
+
+ a) Fix mark handling so \firstmark is taken from the first column
+ if that column has marks at all.
+ (A copy of Piet van Oostrum's fixmarks package, more or less.)
+ b) Keep two column floats like figure* in sequence with single
+ column floats like figure.
+ (Modelled on Ed Sznyter's 2.09 package, fixfloats.)
