[XeTeX] unicod-math testing / siunitx

[David Cottenden]

Joseph (and everyone else) -

This is the original e-mail that I sent to Will when I found the problem 
a while back. Since Will thought it was a unicode-math problem I left it 
with him.

Note that this used the sinuitx from last November, so it might be out 
of date. I hope this is enough to go on - I don't remember much that far 
back, I'm afraid, but if there's anything else I /might/ be able to 
dredge the memory!

Hi Will,

I have been having a play with unicode-math again (I contacted you a
couple of months ago), but appear to have a problem with incompatibility
with siunitx. The following produces a pair of identical errors, as
fully documented (I hope!) in the attached log file.


\documentclass{article}
\listfiles
\usepackage{siunitx}
\usepackage{unicode-math}

\begin{document}

This is the test.

\end{document}


It doesn't seem to make any difference which order I load the two
packages in. My impression is that the error looked like a variable that
had been initialised to an impossible value (intentionally) and never
been assigned anything meaningful, but I'm sure you'll know better than
me. If the "bug" lies with siunitx let me know and I will contact Joseph
Wright - or if you prefer, do it directly!

If I've done something daft, or you need more information, just ask!

Thanks for writing this...

David
