William Robertson suggested there that the problem might be "further down the chain". If this is true, it still helps to know what reliably causes the problem, at least for one user, so others might be interested too. > > I am working on Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx, using the packages provided by the testing version of TeXlive 2010. (The same problem does not occur if one uses the Debian packaged version of TeXlive 2009, but there are other problems instead.)
I did myself some testing today with TeXLive 2010 installed on 64-bit Fedora 13 using the experimental TeXLive 2010 repository for Fedora 13 which is maintained by Jindřich Nový http://jnovy.fedorapeople.org/texlive/ In my case, I report *no* segmentation faults when compiling XeLaTeX sources with lots of mathematics and unicode-math loaded with \setmathfont and \setmainfont directives in the preamble (I use \setmathfont with no potions and \setmainfont with options: 'Numbers=OldStyle,Mapping=tex-text' ; I did the testing with XITS fonts). However, I see another problem, probably closely related to the problem reported on June 6 by Ulrik Vieth (thread: 'Unicode-math strange results') \bar <any letter symbol> places the horizontal bar quite a bit to the left of the actual symbol, and, additionally, \left ... \right *do not* have any effect, i.e., they do not resize delimiters -- exactly as reported by Ulrik. No such problems occur with MiKTeX 2.8 on the same machine (installed under Windows Vista on another partition) which renders everything correctly. Both Fedora's TeXlIve 2010 and MiKTeX 2.8 have the most recent unicode-math/fontspec installed.
