Was the fontspec code for this changed recently?

I could've sworn that I had this working with:

\documentclass{minimal}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\begin{document}
\setromanfont{"[C:/Resources/Fonts/Linotype/Kalligraphia/ 
KalligraphiaLTStd.otf]"}
Test
\end{document}

But now it seems not to work since a recent upgrade (this is of  
course using w32tex in Windows 2000):

Things still work fine in Plain TeX.
