The reason that the font was trying to be processed with ICU was the
"Script=Arabic" option -- this immediately forces the ICU renderer
because it doesn't make sense for an AAT font. Off the top of my head
I'm not sure which feature would win in a fight of
"Renderer=AAT,Script=Arabic" :)
I realise the documentation is rather unclear on the differences
between AAT and OpenType fonts (especially because the vast majority
of users will only be using the latter) and I'll re-write the whole
thing one day...
