Once again, I seem, after a fashion, to have answered my own question. It appears that any accented character (\`e, \"u or è, ü) brings about this error using the xdvipdfmx causes this error. Does the LY1 encoding have anything to do with this?

The following is a minimal example that demonstrates the problem:

%%=====8><---------%%

%!TEX encoding = UTF-8 Unicode

\documentclass{article}

\RequirePackage[mathitalic2,expert,nolucidascale]{lucidabr}
\RequirePackage[LY1]{fontenc}

\begin{document}

This is a simple finite test. $x^2+y^2=z^2$ This is

difficult.

\end{document}
