Try this code out with:
\startitemize
\item \XETEX
\item \PDFETEX
\stopitemize
I have a feeling that \mirror and itemize interfere in a strage manner,
but I don't understand the underlying code to fix it.
Thank you,
Mojca
PS: well, as I have to do a short presentation in the evening and
couldn't wait for an answer, I tried to do a small fix and "apologise"
for it:
\def\XETEX {X\lower.5ex\hbox{\kern-.15em{E}}\kern-.1667em\TeX}
{\itx (PS: \XETEX\ should be \XeTeX)} % outside itemize
It seems that I have no luck today! ;)
(Hmm, Slovenian is certainly not the only case where rotated/mirrored
latin letters are used ;)

Cute little bug!
*extremely* sneaky workaround follows:
\setbox2=\hbox{\XETEX}
\def\XETEX{\copy2 }
Greetings, Taco
