Hello all,

With minimal example

pdfTeX writes the expected data to the log:

     {changing \catcode43=12}
     {into \catcode43=11}

and with \tracingall or similar also reports restoring catcodes at the
end of groups. That's not the case with LuaTeX: no catcode logging. Is
this deliberate or a bug? If it's deliberate, what's the reasoning: it's
tricky for doing a diff against  pdfTeX log.

luatex has catcode tables and it would add complexity; a more natural way in luatex is to define a catcode table, and switch catcodetables and these are reported in the log
