I think if you end the footnote text with \c, that should get rid of the white space. It is supposed to continue the next line of input without putting any space after the currently held output-line text in args to macros, etc. I used to use it all the time in manual pages for the HP-UX Reference manual in 1989-1992 when that was my job at HP.
