no, it's just that basemode gets two features and replacement and 
ligatures are both applied due to the definition of the smallcaps 
featureset, so it's expected behaviour

- either adapt the definition of the smallcaps featureset (i'll do that 
in the next beta)
- or switch to nodemode (in your case nodemode applies smallcaps before 
ligatures)
