See the string יָ . Rendering it with Mekorot-Vilna.ttf (a open-source font I am attaching) using "uniscribe" and "ot" shapers produces different results. I used harfbuzz 0.9.22-win32 on Linux using Wine and Uniscribe usp10.dll version 1.420.2600.5969 (from Windows XP).

This will be fixed in tonight's push.
