Thanks for your help.  I figured out now,  there's a special case I 
triggered:

It is due to the closing square bracket right after "29."


My minimal .emacs file only loads org-mode:

#+begin_example
(setq load-path (cons "~/.emacs.d/org-mode/lisp" load-path))
#+end_example

and my test file is:
#+begin_example
* Title

Alpha gamma, phi beta epsilon phi gamma, psi iota omega, phi mu beta
lambda kappa sigma zeta theta eta, phi psi iota chi gamma[fn:: Eta. 1,
29.]. Alpha gamma
#+end_example

When I press Alt-q to reformat the paragraph nothing happens.

When I delete the last line and continue after the "[fn::Eta 1," with
" 29.]. Alpha" Emacs breaks the line after I type the blank before "Alpha",
so the new line begins with:

#+begin_example
.29].
#end_example

Now, when I put a blank after the "29" and before the closing
square bracket it works.

So, that's it. I'm going to put spaces between the dots and
closing brackets now.

Again, thanks for your help and pointing me to the right place.

Best regards
Robert
