[XeTeX] 'locl' feature with Arabic script

I don't get the 'locl' feature to work with Arabic script, the attached
sample should give diagonal dots not rounded ones (it does if processed
with luatex). 'locl' feature works just fine with Latin script in other
fonts.

Is this a XeTeX bug, feature or even a known limitation? The font might
be buggy off course (though it works with other OpenType engines as
well), but I want to be sure before putting much effort debugging the
font.

Regards,
 Khaled
