I don't know if it escaped your notice but the log has this to say:

## xdv2pdf: use of uninstalled fonts (specified by filename) such as
##   [/usr/local/texlive/2007/texmf-dist/fonts/opentype/public/lm/ 
lmroman10-regular.otf]
## is not supported; try using the xdvipdfmx driver instead.

It is a fontspec issue, isn't it? Since the document does not specify  
by name any fonts, the substitution font gets called, but doesn't  
work with xdv2pdf.

But why does it mangle in such a way the name Anne-Marie is also a  
puzzle to me. I would have guessed simple ASCII things like that did  
not suffer from encoding problems.
