This is probably caused by the new default for the fallback hinter:
It's no longer `latin' but `cjk'.  It seems that this needs some more
fine tuning.  Please try to set

  #define AF_SCRIPT_LIST_DEFAULT  1

instead of value 2 in afglobal.c and report the results.

That may be good for Cyrillic, but that will affect Indic hinting drastically.
IMHO, it would be better to include Cyrillic unicode range in the latin module.
Alternate solutions would be, to have another module for cyrillic and use latin functions there.
Or, the fall back problem for indic can be solved if there is a way to identify script for GSUB glyphs.
