Could you add `\listfiles` to your input and report the resulting `File list`? For me ``` *File List* article.cls 2025/01/22 v1.4n Standard LaTeX document class size10.clo 2025/01/22 v1.4n Standard LaTeX...
I've tracked down this part: LMTX has renamed a few functions again. (Aside: we need to decide whether to keep the intermediate names or to drop them). There's a second...
Right, second issue is that LuaMetaTeX accepts `;` as part of `\numexpr` (seems to be undocumented) - we use that a lot as a delimiter, so need to change it.
OK, I'll check: my feeling is this is by-design but you never know.
(I do hope that Hans sticks to just `%` - it would be a lot more convenient as there are something like 1600 uses of `;` in `l3fp`!)
Seems that support for `;` is by-design in LuaMetaTeX `\numexpr`. Changing the `expl3` code to use a different delimiter is going to be non-trivial: I will look at this but...
I'm still wondering if there is any chance of getting Hans to look again at his `\numexpr` change ...

We've thought about this, and it's really an engine thing - we support `\numexpr` with the e-TeX syntax, not with the `;` extension. So this needs to be raised with...
Now all working - closing as completed - I have also added (very light) testing so we will know if `expl3` fails to load entirely in future.
