Hi Hans,
I’m afraid I have to bother you again with this issue. Consider
this code:
\font \mainface = "file:EBGaramond12-Regular.otf:mode=node"
     \mainface foo
     \bye
This breaks with the latest fontloader because in font-otn
local function initialize(sequence,script,language,enabled)
         local features = sequence.features
         if features then
             local order = features.order
             for i=1,#order do --
             ...
the table “features” never has a field “order”; “sequence” has
one occasionally, though not always.
should be
local function initialize(sequence,script,language,enabled)
     local features = sequence.features
     if features then
         local order = sequence.order
         if order then
             for i=1,#order do
                 ....
             end
         else
             -- can't happen
         end
     end
     return false
end
went unnoticed as context uses a variant
This time it’s exactly as I patched it =)

Thanks for fixing,
Philipp
