Rik: thank you for testing and confirming.

Hans,

Wiping the tuc file (or others) does not solve the issue.
The data-vir.lua file already contains the proposed change.

Dear list members,
The below MWE runs fine and generates a usable PDF.
If I uncomment the second question block and run the MWE on a OS X system it generates an unusable PDF and a nearly empty log file:

I cannot reproduce the problem on a Windows system.
Can somebody on an OS X system check and confirm the issue?
What if you wipe the tuc file?

No message?
