Comment 3 Gordo 2015-04-29 18:56:54 UTC 
If the first and only footnote you insert is to the last line then the footnote is not visible.  No sequence of insert and undo is required.  I just did the other stuff to demonstrate that it is visible in other instances.

It is not related to DOC format. The same thing happens on a new document before saving as anything.
