[XeTeX] Fwd: [tex-live] XeTeX or xdvipdfmx Broken on Mac

[Zdenek Wagner]

Hi all,

I am forwarding a good news to users of Devanagari on Mac. I do not know
how quickly this fix will go into TL 2015 pretest, it may take a few days
because it needs some manual work and mirrors must be synchronised.

I pushed a fix in r37053, both ITF Devanagari and Kohinoor Devanagari
works for me now.
