Hi,

please make sure that obsolete font files are removed from your system when you
upgrade to another version. If you have different versions of a font, XeTeX has
a habit of mixing those up, as evidenced by the wrong version number you are
getting.

In essence XeTeX looks up the glyph positions in the newer file, but then uses
the glyphs from the older file (or vice versa). When characters are added
between versions, this results in an offset for every glyph position after the
addition.

You may want to report this issue to TeX Live. On Windows Vista/7 systems there
may be a greater risk of encountering this, as old files are randomly kept in
the font folder without the user’s knowledge.
