openjdk's changes for CVE-2014-6585 [0] add some additional checking
for the pointers in source/layout/ContextualSubstSubtables.cpp that
have yet to be included in upstream icu.

Also see even more checks added to embedded icu in the latest openjdk-8 package:
jdk-jdk8u40-b22/src/share/native/sun/font/layout/ContextualSubstSubtables.cpp

These are possibly the currently private changes hinted at in upstream
bug #11422:
http://bugs.icu-project.org/trac/ticket/11422

Best wishes,
Mike
