Order of usepackage causes error with footnote and xcolor
Attempting to compile the following,
documentclass[answers]{exam}
usepackage{footnote}
usepackage{xcolor}
makesavenoteenv{solution}
begin{document}
begin{solution}
Hello.footnote{Goodbye.}
end{solution}
end{document}
I get an error on the line calling footnote about a spurious group-closing symbol. If, instead of the xcolor package, I use something else like amsmath or fullpage, no error occurs. Furthermore, if I switch the order of the usepackage statements for xcolor and footnote, no error occurs.
From reading this post, I saw that some packages require the ordering of usepackage to be a certain way. Is this one of those cases, or is something else going on? Intuitively, footnote and xcolor seem completely unrelated.

Considering how many packages use color (even normalcolor), one should always load xcolor first.
