[XeTeX] \mathrm undefined

[Shunichi Amano]

Thanks for reply.

The following may be minimal:

\documentclass{amsart}
\usepackage{fontspec, xunicode}
\begin{document}
\begin{abstract}
$\rm S$
\end{abstract}
\end{document}

If $\rm S$ is put outside the abstract environment or article.cls is  
used, the file compiles without error but with a very weird  
unreadable result.

I think the installation of xetex itself is fine because I have been  
able to compile some documents without error.

log of the above example:
