Hello,

the current XeTeX in TL2008 seems to be broken:

% test.tex:
\XeTeXpdffile "t.pdf"
\bye

| This is XeTeXk, Version 3.1415926-2.2-0.999.3 (Web2C 7.5.7)
| %&-line parsing enabled.
| entering extended mode
| (./test.tex
| ! Unable to load picture or PDF file 't.pdf'.
| <to be read again> 
|                    \par 
| \bye ->\par 
|             \vfill \supereject \end 
| l.2 \bye
|         
| ? h
| The requested image couldn't be read because 
| it was not a recognized image format.

The version of XeTeX in TL2007 works:

| This is XeTeXk, Version 3.141592-2.2-0.996 (Web2C 7.5.6)
|  %&-line parsing enabled.
| entering extended mode
| (./test.tex [1] )
| Output written on test.pdf (1 page).
| Transcript written on test.log.

Yours sincerely
