As you suspect, the interchartoken features require xetex v0.997. SVN 
compilation and installation is not hard on Linux or Mac, but probably 
more difficult on Windows. Instead I guess you can replace your xetex 
binary with this one:
    ftp://akagi.ms.u-tokyo.ac.jp/pub/TeX/win32/xetex-dev-w32.tar.bz2
Windows users can probably confirm whether this would work.
