Hi Jonathan,
can my macro text something so that I can decide whetner to use 255 or
16383? For some time both can exist in distros and not updated user's
computers so I would like to make my packages more robust.
If/when the change happens officially, there'll be a new \XeTeXrevision
value, I guess. So macros could check that.

[XeTeX 3.14159265-2.6-0.99992 (TeX Live 2015)]
Folks,
I'm updating the `ucharclasses.sty' to completely cover
Unicode. This
style file maps Unicode character blocks to character classes, and
I've hit the 256 entry limit of \XeTeXcharclass...
Any chance to extend it to 16 bits?
Returning to this: I've just pushed an experimental branch
'more-classes' to the git repository at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/xetex/ that is intended to increase
the \XeTeXcharclass limit to 16384 (where 16384 will be the
"ignored" value, formerly 256, and 16383 will be the "boundary"
value, formerly 255; so for general allocation purposes the maximum
class number becomes 16382).
If we go ahead with this change, it will require updates to any
packages/documents that rely on the special values 255 and 256, and
the \newXeTeXintercharclass allocator will need to be told the new
limit.
Before this gets merged to the master source, though, some testing
would be appreciated -- obviously, this will currently require
rebuilding xetex from the git source branch.
Arthur, if you have a chance to look at this and see if I missed
anything obvious, that would be great - thanks.
