This looks like a XeTeX bug to me. We've had a few other hyphenation  
issues in the past, but I don't recall this, and Spotlight can't find  
any mention of it either, so I think you get the credit for reporting  
a new one. :)

I'll fix this for the next release, but for now I can't think of a  
good workaround for you (short of adding \mbox around the word, or  
similar ugliness); sorry.

Thanks for the report,

JK
