Thanks, Nikola.
Using \setmainfont{FreeSerif} and running
xelatex t1.tex
gives me a PDF output file with the mathematics symbols still missing. I have
attached a file, missingmaths.jpg, of the relevant output. The t1.log file is
also attached.

Commenting out \usepackage{fontspec} and \setmainfont{FreeSerif} and running
latex or pdflatex on t1.tex gives me standard .dvi or .pdf output with LM/CM
fonts with no missing maths symbols. So, the problem only arises when xelatex is
invoked.
Any further light on how this problem may be solved is most appreciated.
