bidi, manyfoot, and longtable do not work after an update of LaTeX some months ago

[jensbakker]

Dear Vafa Khalighi, dear Ladies and Gentlemen

After some recent update of LaTeX, unfortunately I do not know which one, I discovered that my files with RTL script (Arabic) which are using manyfoot and longtable do not compile any more. The Persian Tex Group had provided me in May 2013 with a special code that made it possible to use longtable and manyfoot.
I would like to ask you, please, if there is a possibility to make this work again. A minimal example with the needed features and the special code of the Persian Tex Group can be found below. It compiles, but if the longtable in the document is commented in the file does not compile any more.
With best wishes and best regards,
Jens Bakker
