I wonder if someone can think of a way to make it possible to use microtype and have at the same time one word with rotated glyphs. The minimal example below runs fine unless you uncomment microtype.
Protrusion doesn't work with rotated glyphs, which seems to be a limitation of xetex. I don't know whether this could be fixed, or even what a sensible behaviour would be.
I have tried temporarily disabling microtype using \microtypesetup{protrusion=false,expansion=false} then switching it on again after the offending rotation, but it does not work. Compilation stops with the message: ! Missing number, treated as zero. <to be read again> U
This error is a bug in microtype. Fixed in the new beta version: http://xetex.tk
