It appears it happened in the change to revision 12212 of skins/MonoBook.php

Now changing line 260 from

?>                <li id="<?=$aLink?>"><?= $this->html($aLink) ?></li>

to

?>                <li id="f-<?=$aLink?>"><?= $this->html($aLink) ?></li>

should fix this.

Meanwhile it's changing

?>                <li id="<?php echo$aLink?>"><?php $this->html($aLink) ?></li>

to

?>                <li id="f-<?php echo$aLink?>"><?php $this->html($aLink) ?></li>

Change id in commonPrint.css 

This patch should change id in commonPrint.css, so that it match with right id
in use

I would have patched that other single line since that does fix what most likely was forgotten in the above mentioned change to r12212 *and* 
it would keep the "f-" in all "f"ooter IDs making the style sheet easier to read.
However the other way should work too.

Patch adding f- so id match with commonPrint.css

Choose only one patch

I picked the patch from comment #3 because a) people may have customized CSS/JS
based on the current id and b) the equivalent links might not actually be in a
footer in other skins.

Monobook IDs won't appear in Cologne Blue ... and if it takes few over six months to fix two forgotten letters the thought to consider the 
buggy names as established has something.
