Q:

Latin text not hyphenated at all with LuaLaTeX and polyglossia

I recently noticed that there are numerous under- and overfull hboxes in the document I'm working on. Further inspection revealed that such problems almost always arose when there was Latin text involved; seemingly, LaTeX doesn't see any hyphenation points, so it can't break lines and paragraphs end up looking ugly.
This is a MWE:
\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{polyglossia}

\setdefaultlanguage{english}
\setotherlanguage[variant=classic]{latin}

\begin{document}
\showhyphens{\textenglish{amusing}}
\showhyphens{\textlatin{instigare}}
\end{document}

Compiling this code with LuaLaTeX yields a log file; here are the relevant fragments:

[][] \EU2/lmr/m/n/10 amus-ing 
  [][] \EU2/lmr/m/n/10 instigare

Omitting the variant option of the Latin language (variant=classic) does not change the result.
I have left out some things, such as the font setup, which, from what I have seen in my investigations, is involved in the matter (don't know why, though). However, I hope the example provided is enough — if it isn't, please, ask. For the record, this question seems somewhat relevant, although I haven't been able to extrapolate the results to my case.
EDIT: This is another MWE aimed at XeLaTeX, under which -as pointed out by egreg- it seems to work:
\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{polyglossia}
\usepackage{xltxtra}

\setdefaultlanguage{english}
\setotherlanguage[variant=classic]{latin}

\begin{document}
\showhyphens{\textenglish{amusing}}
\showhyphens{\textlatin{instigare}}
\end{document}

In the corresponding log file:

\EU1/lmr/m/n/10 amus-ing 
  []\EU1/lmr/m/n/10 in-sti-gare

It's a bug in gloss-latin.ldf that doesn't advertise the pattern file name for LuaLaTeX.
Workaround: do it yourself.
\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{polyglossia}

\setdefaultlanguage{english}
\setotherlanguage[variant=classic]{latin}
\setotherlanguage{italian}

\makeatletter
\def\latin@language{%
  \language=\l@classiclatin
  \xpg@set@language@luatex@ii{classiclatin}%
}
\makeatother

\begin{document}

\message{\the\language -->}\showhyphens{amusing}

\begin{otherlanguage*}{latin}
\message{\the\language -->}\showhyphens{instigare}
\end{otherlanguage*}

\begin{otherlanguage*}{italian}
\message{\the\language -->}\showhyphens{istigare}
\end{otherlanguage*}
\end{document}

Here's the output on the terminal; note that 54 is exactly the number assigned to the classic Latin hyphenation patterns.

I have fixed the bug in Polyglossia with this commit and will make an upload to CTAN shortly.  Many thanks to Enrico for investigating and suggesting a workaround.
