Thank you for your response. I will file a bug with Debian at some point.

Why Debian? I meant it is more a xetex problem so I would add a bug

Sorry for the confusion. I asked about woff files on a Debian email
list, and the response [1] was I should file a bug report against
the package that was choking on the woff files. That package would
be the package containing XeTeX. So I agree, not a Debian bug, but
Debian would receive a bug against the XeTeX package, and presumably
forward that bug to the XeTeX maintainers (which I would imagine are
on this xetex list already).<br>

where do I put the extension? I can place the font name in brackets [],
and include the extension, but then I need to supply the entire path to
the font file.

You don't need the full path. This here works fine for me (arial is
a system font and the other is in the texmf tree):
\font\test="[arial.ttf]:color=FF0000;mapping=tex-text" at 20pt
\test

I had missed that, thank you for pointing it out to me.<br>
