Has this file really made it to CTAN? Hmm, then this happened by mistake
when producing the TDS archive. Sorry.
It was never intended for "public use", but there is no harm in using it
of course :)

The issue indicates that your xelatex format is a bit outdated, so you
should recreate it. (In the last version I have actually added a fix
that provides \newXeTeXintecharclass unless it is defined in the format
(via xelatex.ini) but it seems that I put the code to that effect at the
wrong place in polyglossia.sty ...)

This is unrelated to polyglossia: Vafa, can you help on this?

Very strange: this is a date in the future!
