Again, I checked and there is a considerable switch done from 9996 to 9997, and that is: * Unicode/OpenType math implementation now based on HarfBuzz's MATH table support, for easier ongoing maintenance. The associated code changes are considerable (roughly: 14 files changed, 197 insertions(+), 600 deletions(-) ) That is not something I want to push to stable.

It is not about the version differences, but about the amount of changes introduced. Stable updates are considered very critical.

That doesn't look possible. Updates to stable are very rare, and in this case we would need to push a rather uncomfortably large set of changes. If there is a simple and confined patch to fix this, that would be fine, but I don't see it. Hi Norbert, thank you for letting me know. That's unfortunate, although the difference in the last digit of the XeTeX version seems minor to me. I guess, in this case feel free to view it as a bug report against the xetex version in testing... (I did not try to install the version from unstable/experimental so far, but if it is brand new, the bug is likely to be fixed there.) Best, Leon

Package: texlive-xetex
Version: 2016.20170123-5
Severity: minor
Details:
http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/375355/xelatex-unicode-math-big
In short, the output of xelatex on
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{unicode-math}
\begin{document}
\(\bigl[
,
\mathchoice%
{}%
{}%
{}%
{\hbox{$\scriptscriptstyle a$}}
\bigr]\)
\end{document}
is buggy.
XeTeX Version 3.14159265-2.6-0.6 has the bug, and
3.14159265-2.6-0.8 doesn't. Could you suggest the newer version into
stable?
