OK, now I’m confused about where the error is coming from. I tried it
myself, also adding the .otf extension for some runs, both with XɘTeX &
LuaTeX, and always get a similar error.

Actually this is a real answer; my reading of the fontspec manual
suggested that the [<style>Font = <whatever>] options needed file names
rather than font names. Turns out, not so much:
\documentclass {minimal}
\usepackage {fontspec}
\setmainfont[
BoldFont = * Bold,
ItalicFont = * Italic,
BoldItalicFont = * Bold Italic,
SmallCapsFont = * Small Caps,
Ligatures = TeX
]{Fontin Sans}
\begin {document}
foo \textit{foo \textbf{bar};} \textbf{bas} \textsc{quux}
\end {document}
This works just fine.
Thanks,
—Joel
