Another fact point:

This might be related to file limits and lualatex includegraphics not
closing files?

http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/258127/why-lualatex-gives-erorr-too-many-open-files-but-pdflatex-does-not-on-same-lat

But I have increased file limits to 100000 and still I get core dump.
I do not get "Too many open files" error. I only see a crash. But
it is possible there are related somehow as it was mentioned to me
at tex.stackexchange that the above error message was seen
trying lualatex on the latex file, but not the crash.

Is file limit still an issue with lualatex includegraphics?

Thanks,
--Nasser
ps. file is in the zip, linked to in the original message.
