[XeTeX] (bug?) letterspacing with LetterSpace and soul

[John Was]

Unfortunately test.tex doesn't compile properly on a Windows system using plain XeTeX.  The first complaint it makes is that it doesn't understand the command \typeout, and when told to ignore that (more than once)  it goes on to typeset the passage but with no hyphenation patterns loaded - so there are overfull rules at various points in the text.  The error message (which I suppose is meant to go in the log) actually appears at the start of the resulting PDF, before the Greek text starts.

  Well it works---see attached files.
