yes see the example I posted in the second message I posted to this thread in Knuth TeX it typesets 700 in xetex 2015 it typesets 0, That was engineered to typeset a test value, but real documents that produce different spacing are inevitable, as this later breqn example shows. > does it > break any package? with breqn the issue is not too bad since breqn is an > experimental package and not a lot of people are aware of it or use it.

As I said in the initial message in this thread that breaks 77 of our test files and affects any document that is dissembling horizontal lists constructed from math. It was easy to guess breqn was doing that kind of thing so I made a small example and as expected it failed in 2015. Other packages, who knows....
