See my earlier email, most likely the culprit is the broken Emacs to
HarfBuzz script code mapping that we discussed earlier. HarfBuzz needs
to know the correct script of the text to perform shaping, and it looks
like we are passing nonsense values for certain scripts (or rather for
certain scripts we are lucky that the mapping is not broken).
