Thank you for vour investigation.
The difference is, that in „geißeln“ the hyphenation is in front of the
ß, in „wußte“ behind it. Those before ß XeTeX looses always, the others
only sometimes.
With babel it works fine, when you give them the marks with
\hyphenation{}. I don't understand this difference, but I want XeTeX to
find the hyphenation points from the patterns, as all the others.
