Aehm, could you *elaborate* *where* the bug in xmltex is?

You stated that xmltex is not maintained, which is not completely right.

You stated that *support for xmltex was dropped*.

So how it comes that this is a bug in xmltex?

It is dropped support for xmltex in xmlto/whatever, but there is
nothing *we* can fix here.

So please tag it with "wontfix", close it, but reassigning it to
xmltex without reason sounds a bit strange ....

Best wishes

Norbert
