Many thanks to everyone involved in coming up with and posting the recent
updates and improvements to luaotfload.sty and luatexbase.sty. (About my
system: I'm running a fully updated version of MacTeX2013, OS: MacOS X 10.7.5.)
Probably unsurprisingly to some, there's still more work to do in order to get
TeXLive ready for the masses. For instance, a LaTeX user who wants to use the
fontspec package won't get very far as of now. To wit, the following MWE
% !TEX TS-program = lualatex
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\begin{document}
Hello World.
\end{document}
generates this "output":
This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.76.0-2013041516 (rev 4627)
restricted \write18 enabled.

Put differently, LaTeX doesn't even make it to the \begin{document}
instruction. :-(
