I’m using it like \startregister[index][bibliografie]{Bibliografie} … \stopregister[index][bibliografie] i.e. very similar to your example, and can confirm it doesn’t result in a page range in the index. Also gives no error.

Since I've become an expert on tuc files since yesterday (ha!): if I compare the tuc from a mkiv and a mkxl run, I see that mkiv produces an entry ["lastrealpage"]=9 in the references table, mkxl doesn't. This appears to be the relevant bit, and it is connected with the replacement of realpageno by c_realpageno in line 638 of strc-reg.lmt

references.lastrealpage = texgetcount(c_realpageno)

Let's seen if we can make Thomas more of an expert as he's zooming in on the issue: extendregister { metadata = { name = name }, references = { abel = label }, } Let me know if you't see it.

Possibly related: I noticed last week that mkxl does not update the legacy counter \pageno any more for every page. i'll check it
