I discovered this problem yesterday, and Jonathan discovered it
indepandantly a few days ago. Funny, isn't it?
Anyway, there was too updates after 0.92 resulting in two different
versions 0.93, apparently due to a confusion about xetex.def's "home".
Jonathan is going to merge the two versions, and we'll include the
merged version in TL asap. (May take one week for the merge to happen.)
Manuel.
