Hi,

I would like to test some hyphenation patterns with XeLaTeX (so that I can use polyglossia).
When I try to compile the xelatex format by

xetex -ini -etex xelatex.ini

I get a bunch of error messages

! Undefined control sequence.
<argument> \UnicodeEncodingName 
                                
l.6994 ...{\textzerooldstyle} \UnicodeEncodingName
                                                  {\oldstylenums{0}}
?

                                                  {\oldstylenums{0}}
? 

When I continue the format is built nevertheless, but then when I try to use it I get

(/usr/local/texlive/2020/texmf-dist/tex/latex/base/fontenc.sty (/usr/local/texlive/2020/texmf-dist/tex/latex/base/tulmr.fd

(That makes 100 errors; please try again.)
No pages of output.

What is the recipe to create a personalized xelatex.fmt?

Thanks in advance,

...es funkeln aus der Tiefe manchmal seine Töne;
wer sie hört, spürt ein Geheimnis walten, sieht es fliehen, wünscht es festzuhalten,
brennt vor Heimweh. Denn er ahnt das Schöne.     (Hermann Hesse)
