this is unlikely to happen (unless we add lots of optional code to mkii
to deal with xetex which then probably results in a lot of other code
hooked into other mechanisms as well) as mkii is kind of frozen
if we have to port all sophisticated (upcoming) mkiv features back to
mkiv we might wonder why we started with mkiv in the first place; the
whole idea is to have less (complex) code
