mkluatexfontdb version 1.07, database version 2.009
This is the *current* version I 'updated' too. Whatever the previous
version was generated no errors.

With fonts that are on CTAN? That sort of defeats the purpose of using
fontspec in the first place! :-)
But, it doesn't matter. I normally use Minion Pro (which I own), but it
fails even using XITS Here is a simple MWE
\documentclass[11pt,letterpaper]{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont{XITS}
\usepackage{unicode-math}
\setmathfont{Asana Math}
\begin{document}
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Praesent in
tincidunt nulla. Donec quis laoreet est. Aenean vitae est felis, a
venenatis magna. Mauris semper bibendum vulputate. Etiam bibendum quam
ut erat rutrum consequat.
\begin{equation}
\frac{dN}{dt}=rN\left(1-\frac{N}{K}\right)
\end{equation}
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Morbi eget
dolor ac diam interdum volutpat. Cras luctus congue nibh, at dictum
nulla iaculis quis.
\end{document}
When I try to compile this using lualatex (using MikTeX 2.9), it
absolutely refuses to compile. For this MWE, the error message actually
occurs during liaotfload:
Luaotfload | scanning TEXMF and OS fonts...lualatex: Unexpected condition.
And then it stops.

Sorry, but that seems like a stretch. Everything worked before worked
before.

Sure -- not sure what else to report.
I think the fact that mkluatexfontdb doesn't run - at all really - is
telling. Could it be a corruption of something on this one - updated -
system? Suggestions on what to look for?
Thanks.
