I don't know from where LuaLaTeX takes those ligatures, but looking at the font (fresh installation from http://arkandis.tuxfamily.org/adffonts.html), I have to observe that the roman variant has 265 glyphs, the italic one only 260. Among those missing in the latter are just the ligatures fl, ffi, and ffl. So this is definitely not XeTeX's fault.
