Hi,

On Mac OS X, a fatal error occurs while processing this simple tex
file (which had no problem with TL2014):

%%%
\font\ha="Helvetica"
\ha abc
\bye
%%%

$ xetex --no-pdf t.tex
This is XeTeX, Version 3.14159265-2.6-0.99992 (TeX Live 2015)
(preloaded format=xetex)
 restricted \write18 enabled.
entering extended mode
(./t.tex [1] )
Output written on t.xdv (1 page, 376 bytes).
Transcript written on t.log.
$ xdvipdfmx t.xdv
t.xdv -> t.pdf
[1
xdvipdfmx:fatal: sfnt: table not found...
Output file removed.

The real font is located at /System/Library/Fonts/Helvetica.dfont.

Regards,
Dohyun Kim
