Howdy,

Actually, the lucbmath package gives me terrible trouble in even a simple
document. My problem with \Gamma is with no math package! Try this:

%&program=xelatex
%&encoding=UTF-8 Unicode
% Basic XeLaTeX Document
\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{fontspec}
\setromanfont{Hoefler Text}

\begin{document}

Here is an Upper Case Gamma: \(\Gamma\)!

\end{document}

I get no \Gamma displayed.

Good Luck,
