[XeTeX] Trouble with the new Xetex

[Andrew Gollan]

I have found out a bit more about this problem. The Invalid glyph is
actually the result of a \=V in one place, but the \=y is being printed as
a spiral in the PDF if that is removed.  Here is a minimal example with
attendant files. The macronX files are the same from the previous version.
Note that everything is printed properly in this PDF.
