i've set reply to texhax *again*

just pay attention, please

since you never give the page maker a chance to run, it's no wonder
the page counters never change.  you'd have the same effect if you
looked at \thepage

change \\ to \par in your \p, and observe why you need a \label-like
mechanism for looking at \count1
