iftex package uses the \XeTeXinterchartok primive of XeTeX to find out that
XeTeX is the egine in use. This primitive is recent that is undefined in old
versions of XeTeX. So if you have an old xetex binary, then this primitive
is undefined and thus iftex thinks that you have loaded some other engines
and not xetex.
