I will run the test file.  But since you suggested this problem, I decided
to check xetex and xdvipdfmx:

carl@carls-mbp-2 build % which xetex

/Library/TeX/texbin/xetex

carl@carls-mbp-2 build % which xdvipdfmx

/opt/local/bin/xdvipdfmx


It looks like xdvipdfmx is not part of my TeX installation, but part of my
MacPorts installation.  So maybe that's the conflict that is happening.


Is that a possibility?
