regression? 620 pages limit? (SOLVED)?

regression? 620 pages limit? (SOLVED)?

[Jon Crump]

Dear all

I appear to have run up against a bug discussed last March. I'm newly running:

    mtx-context     | main context file:
/Users/jjc/context11-11/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/context.mkiv
    mtx-context     | current version: 2011.11.14 16:17

with a short test file I run:

    context --environment=arabtestI.tex --result=tmp arab-testII.xml

and the log concludes thus:

    mtx-context     | main context file:
/Users/jjc/context11-11/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/context.mkiv
    mtx-context     | current version: 2011.11.14 16:17

but when I try to do the same thing on my full marked up text:

    context --environment=svo-tei.tex --result=tmp svoboda_diary.xml

the log concludes like this:

    mtx-context     | fatal error: return code: 1

I didn't notice this until I tried to use the --result flag because,
in spite of the 'fatal error', a new pdf (that actually reflected
changes I had made in the environment file) was in fact created using
the name of the xml input: svoboda_diary.pdf. But when I used
--result, a new pdf was created for the short file but not for the
long one. Wondering why, I inspected the log and only then noticed:
"mtx-context     | fatal error: return code: 1"

In the error case the lua stats in the log shows:

    mkiv lua stats  > result saved in file      - tmp.pdf

but no tmp.pdf file is produced. Instead, svoboda_diary.pdf is
updated; weird huh?

In the discussion on the list Steffan said "Taco found the bug
(thanks!): There is a fix luatex rev. 4093." So am I seeing a
regression error here or, as is perfectly possible since I'm out there
beyond the limits of my understanding, am I just doing something wrong
or using the wrong tool?

baffled as usual,
Jon

Damn and blast, pasted the wrong copy. for the successful run on the
short file I mentioned, the log reads:

mtx-context     | result renamed to: tmp
system          | total runtime: 2.839

apologies,
Jon
