What if you do: 
\footcite[\nopage{}][Nagel's ... ]{nagel1970} 
? 
Of course this is a workaround. It at least stops the `pp.' and perhaps it 
also triggers the sequence of the optional arguments. You could also try to 
replace these cases with an ordinary \footnote{Nagel's ... \cite{nagel1970}.}  
This is only problematic if capitalization is an issue, for example when the 
citation is replaced by Ibid. and the preceding comment ends with a comma or 
the like. 
 
If these workarounds don't work, I would suggest that you update your source 
files to reflect the new order of the optional arguments. I don't know of 
course whether you have a lot of double optional arguments. I did it during 
the last stage of the editing of my thesis (250pp.).

You seem to mix up ibid and opcit?

Generally, the less options you use, the less problems can occur. 
Hope this helps.
