+    One further incompatibility between Xetex and Luatex-Fonts consists
+    in their option list syntax: apparently, Xetex requires key-value
+    options to be prefixed by a "+" (ascii “plus”) character. We
+    silently accept this as well, dropping the first byte if it is a
+    plus or minus character.
