change this in enco-ffr: (\empty -> \currentmainlanguage)
\startlanguagespecifics[\s!fr]
\definetextmodediscretionary : {\removeunwantedspaces\prewordbreak\kern\hspaceamount\currentmainlanguage{:}:}
\definetextmodediscretionary ; {\removeunwantedspaces\prewordbreak\kern\hspaceamount\currentmainlanguage{;};}
\definetextmodediscretionary ? {\removeunwantedspaces\prewordbreak\kern\hspaceamount\currentmainlanguage{?}?}
\definetextmodediscretionary ! {\removeunwantedspaces\prewordbreak\kern\hspaceamount\currentmainlanguage{!}!}
\stoplanguagespecifics
(btw, this feature will be replaces in due time by pdftex's pre/post character kerning features)
