[OS X TeX] New Pretest Versions

Wed Jun 4 11:09:20 EDT 2014

Axel,

Thanks for this report.

I'll forward the report on to the LuaTeX folks. 

However, I don't want you to get your hopes
up. I think of the PPC support as mainly present so PPC users running the standard
TeX programs can continue to get updates for style and class files via TeX Live Utility
and tlmgr. LuaTeX is a rapidly evolving program, and it may not be worth fixing
PPC bugs on it. (Of course in that case we shouldn't include LuaTeX in the
distribution.)

But none of this has to do with your report, which is much appreciated.

Dick Koch
