well, plainly it's _not_ siunitx, since that package contains no fonts,
but you've done the test that demonstrates what's tweaking the error.

thanks.

i wasn't attempting any such thing (and, btw, there are documented cases
of that, so it's not _solely_ prehistorical).

unfortunately, maybe, for me.  don't worry, most people _don't_ want to
know me...

:-)

unfortunately, it still tweaks an issue in fontspec on _my_ machine, so
i couldn't investigate it further if i tried.  i'm going no further with
it, since my inexperience with luatex makes it unlikely i'll find
anything more.

btw, i hadn't realised until your previous post that you're using
lualatex; that's the sort of thing it _is_ worthwhile mentioning in an
initial post on a topic.
