Hello,

Support for MM fonts seem to be broken in the SVN version of XeTeX:

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\font\x="Minion MM Roman" at 12pt\x Hello
\end{document}

I'm not arguing that MM fonts should necessarily continue to be  
supported...if they are going to officially be phased out then I'll  
remove all reference to them in fontspec.
