I have uploaded mempatch.sty to UK incoming. Please use this to replace 

the current /macros/latex/contrib/memoir/mempatch.sty

Version 3.7 of mempatch fixes a slight font leakage into memoir's 

footnotes and adjust a change made by fixltx2e that is unwarranted for memoir and which caused table* in twocolumn documents to fail.

i've installed the file as requested. thanks for the upload.
