Hm, I somehow thought I had responded to that. Indeed you need to add  
the \setflag command, it's a LaTeX thing and a typo on my part. The  
point is that the footer just checks the variable \ifwhole, and does  
not do the work that the header does of trying to define \setflag and  
then calling it. A simpler thing would actually have been:

\wholefalse
\input{foot.tex}

instead of the above three lines. All you need is to make sure  
\ifwhole returns false before entering foot.tex, so that the \else  
part of foot.tex kicks in. At this point, you don't really need to  
redefine \setflag.
