Turns out that zeroing marks by GDEF in Tibetan (commit
d5bd0590ae2fbc7b0dee86385a565aef00ffb835) has significantly regressed
our numbers for the Windows himalaya.ttf font. :(
The main problem seems to be the handling of
0F3C;TIBETAN MARK ANG KHANG GYON;Ps;0;ON;;;;;Y;TIBETAN LEFT BRACE;;;;
0F3D;TIBETAN MARK ANG KHANG GYAS;Pe;0;ON;;;;;Y;TIBETAN RIGHT BRACE;;;;
both of which the GDEF table in himalaya.ttf classifies (incorrectly) as
class 3. Result:

and lots of similar examples where these characters are used.
Sigh.
