The bug occurs with fonts that contain lookups for arbitrary fractions and
old-style numbers. You can easily verify this with the command:
otfinfo -f
For example, referring to Adobe Garamond Premier Pro, I obtain:

============================================
otfinfo -f GaramondPremrPro.otf

@Dieter
Yes, the entry is that one - I tried an English translation from my Italian
layout ...

See the attachment, where I use various font:

In the last example (that of Linux Libertine) it is clear that the numbers are
in any case intended as fractions. If only one number is entered, as a
numerator; if a second is entered, as denominator. If after entering the digit
of the number 2 I had hit the space bar, I would not have got the number 12,
but the fraction 1/2.
