I'm afraid I don't agree.

In 6.1.5.2 there's no direct Format Footer. You have to select Format > Page
and then choose the Header or Footer tab. And yes, there there's a setting
'same content on first page'. But it doesn't work properly. That is, if you
ensure that 'same content on first page' is unchecked and you insert '2' in,
let's say, the header on the second page, you do indeed suppress '1' from
appearing on the first page. However, '2' then appears on Page 3 and on all
subsequent pages!!

I shall have to change the status of this bug back from Resolved to
Unconfirmed. (Not sure where and how to do that yet, so please bear with me).

edit: Having returned to here, I've obviously found how to re-set the status
back to Unconfirmed. This page numbering bug clearly needs further work.
