Not sure whether this service continues, since its author, Jonathan
Kew, is no longer an employee of SIL. Have you tried the TeX Live
Manager tlmgr to update your whole TeX Live 2008 installation? XeTeX
is a part of it. The tlmgr as published with TL 2008 is a bit
unfinished and can delete itself and also large parts of TeX Live –
before it starts to *fetch* the updated software from a different
server every time that might be down or provide obsoleted versions,
so it's probably better to set a preferred CTAN server nearby. And
therefore it's also good to know where the disaster recovery script
can be fetched from (http://www.tug.org/texlive/tlmgr.html).
