Now the LuaTeX documentation explicitly says that hyphenation in iniTeX may crash the system. Any idea how hard it would be to fix?
Probably fairly easy, but there is little point in fixing code that will be removed soon. If you want to jump into this issue at this moment, just use Aleph instead. The whole problem is inherited from Omega 1 anyway.
I am not interested in fixing bugs as an intellectual exercise. If you are planning on removing that code, no point in trying to get acquainted with the current code. The dump file now contains some large sections of zeros at the end, but I presume that those will just be Omega's 64k register arrays. There is vast seemingly repetitive content earlier on in the dump; I'll see whether I can make anything of it. Of course, a large number of character nodes is to be expected, but there might be more involved. -- David Kastrup
