> there have been a couple of bug fixes after the formal 5.4.0 release but afaik not in the virtual machine code (which normally is the most sensitive); i used to mark low level changes so that it got signaled (in context) but the byte code version info changed late in 5.4 dev so i no longer do that now

Oh I see, I wasn't aware that the dev versions are used. After
recompiling with the latest development code the error is gone.

One other question about LuaMetaTeX 2.7.1: I noticed that the
terminal_input callback is gone. Does this mean that the current
behaviour of basically freezing when previously terminal input was
requested is hardcoded or is some other callback invoked which can then
provide some tokens?
