Steps to reproduce:

I've Installed Charis SIL 5.000 on Ubuntu 18.04 and opened the following snippet with Firefox 61.0.1:

<html lang="sr">
<head><meta charset="utf-8"></head>
<body style="font-family: 'Charis SIL'; font-style: italic">
кућа ми је отворена, моја ватра угашена<br>
зато, ако желиш, боже кише, само напред, пошаљи пљусак
</body>
</html>

Alternatively, open this page (it uses a .woff font so you don't have to install anything): https://zabolekar.github.io/


Actual results:

This is how it looks like: https://i.stack.imgur.com/V4IMh.png

It displays Russian versions of т, г, б and п instead of Serbian versions. However, if I remove the font-family property or change it to some other value, like 'Ubuntu' or 'Noto Serif' or 'Caladea', Serbian versions are displayed correctly.


Expected results:

This is how it should look like (and how it looks like, for example, in Chrome): https://i.stack.imgur.com/WaSfA.png
