Leipzig and glossaries: compatibility problems, and glossary does not appear

Question

I am using the leipzig package, which provides shortcut macros for linguistic gloss abbreviations, and interfaces with the glossaries package to index these abbreviations. I am compiling properly (running pdflatexmk) throughout.

According to the leipzig package documentation, leipzig automatically loads glossaries. So, according to the documentation (p. 2), MWE#1 should produce the following output (minus the weird spacing, for which see same page of the documentation):

\documentclass{article} 
\usepackage{leipzig}
\makeglossaries
\begin{document}
  Use at least one macro like
  {\Nom}.\footnote{\printglossaries}
\end{document}

This is where my first problem arises: MWE#1 does not typeset on my system. Instead, I get an error message saying that \makeglossaries is an undefined control sequence. It seems that leipzig is not really including glossaries by default, which is strange.

I understand it's possible to invoke glossaries as an option on leipzig, so I modify the code as in MWE#2:

\documentclass{article} 
\usepackage[glossaries]{leipzig}
\makeglossaries
\begin{document}
  Use at least one macro like
  {\Nom}.\footnote{\printglossaries}
\end{document}

Attempting to typeset this yields the following error message:

Error: \acrpluralsuffix undefined.

This refers to a line in leipzig.sty (see package documentation p. 30):

\renewcommand*{\acrpluralsuffix}{\glstextup{\glspluralsuffix}}%

So this may be a bug (?), but I cannot tell.

The last resort is to invoke glossaries separately from leipzig, as follows:

\documentclass{article} 
\usepackage{leipzig}
\usepackage{glossaries}
\makeglossaries
\begin{document}
  Use at least one macro like
  {\Nom}.\footnote{\printglossaries}
\end{document}

MWE#3 seems to circumvent the earlier problem, in that now the code typesets with no error messages. But a new problem appears: the glossary does not appear at all. Although the abbreviation produced by {\Nom} typesets correctly, the footnote where the glossary is meant to be appears empty:

I am led to believe this is due to some fault with leipzig and not glossaries. One clue to this fact is that makeglossaries gives no output when I run it on MWE#3:

Scanning input file MWE3.glo...done (0 entries accepted, 0 rejected). Nothing written in MWE3.gls.

Furthermore, if I define a normal abbreviation alongside one of the leipzig abbreviations, the glossary appears showing the former, but not the latter:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{leipzig}
\usepackage{glossaries}
\makeglossaries

\newglossaryentry{M}{name={$M$},
sort=M,
description={mass},
symbol=kg}

\begin{document}

Here is a linguistic abbreviation, {\Nom}.

Here is a physics abbreviation, \gls{M}.

\footnote{\printglossaries}
\end{document}

Finally, whenever I try to use the leipzig command \makeglosses, I get an Undefined control sequence error.

I am using a standard MacTeX distribution with the latest version of leipzig and a recent enough version of glossaries.

Any help appreciated.
