EB Garamond is hopelessly broken with respect to hlig and dlig, and

I reported the problem
(https://github.com/octaviopardo/EBGaramond12/issues/20) over five
years ago, and the maintainer (if there is one) has done nothing. See
also #4 in that issues list
(https://github.com/octaviopardo/EBGaramond12/issues/4). There are a
couple of forks, but there is no established reference implementation
that I can see. The Google Fonts implementation is similarly
challenged, perhaps worse.
Oh, I hadn't realized. I had read somewhere that the TeXlive version was
simply older than the `Specimen.pdf` document and had some bugs. I
hadn't realized that it wasn't fixed yet.
This is unfortunate!
Thanks for the information, you saved me from wasting too much time on that.
if you know what the bugs are you can make a pseudo feature that fixes
it (there are examples in the test suite)
