I compiled revision 548 on my Debian/testing and only replacing
binaries (i.e xetex, xetex.pool and regenerating xe(la)tex.fmt
also replacing xdvipdfmx from revision 103), finally I got a good 
PDF with Kakuto-san's 
\fontspec[Mapping=tex-text,RawFeature=vertical,Script=CJK]{Kozuka Mincho Pro-VI}
but yet failed with
\fontspec[Mapping=tex-text,Vertical=RotatedGlyphs,Script=CJK]{Kozuka Mincho Pro-VI}
However, there could be some inconsisteny with my environments.

It's really greate to see XeTeX can generate vertical writings 
correctly.

Thanks Kakuto-san and thanks everyone.
