Summary0000593: \escapechar ignored by \meaning
DescriptionLuaTeX ignores \escapechar=-1 when producing the meaning of a primitive; the other engines don't. This confuses code that e.g. test for \meaning\x=x with \escapechar=-1 to test whether \x is a primitive with the correct meaning.
Steps To ReproduceRun the following document through any engine with the plain format:

\escapechar=-1
\edef\x{\meaning\relax}
\message{\x}
\bye

TeX, pdfTeX and XeTeX produce "relax", but LuaTeX produces "\relax".
