Thanks, Luigi, Mojca. I have disabled synctex but will enable it once a version that works with the latest luatex is available for the standalone. BTW, synctex in TeXShop (which I use) does not really do much when processing prd files as I normally do.

Some editors (like TeXworks, TeXShop, ...) enable it by default. In
those cases it has to be explicitly turned off somewhere in the engine
file or engine settings. And the editor loses quite a bit of
functionaltiy.
