I think TeXLive updates ICU and other packages in its yearly release, and even if they didn't I think you can convince them to update it once that issue is fixed upstream. > Unfortunately, it appears that in the short term I have to not only do > without "ignore sub," but also do without later rules seeing the output of > earlier rules, because I need my fonts to work both with widely-deployed > XeTeX and with correct implementations. In my experience ICU's layout engine have several other OpenType issues, especially with not widely used parts of the spec. Long ago there was a plan to replace their own implementation with HarfBuzz, no idea if this still true.
