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.

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
