Title:
  <html lang="..."> attribute breaks dashes

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in firefox source package in Focal:
  Confirmed
Status in firefox source package in Jammy:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The attached HTML file should be rendered as two lines of text, one
  with dashes between the words and one with spaces. However, Firefox
  renders the file with no dashes whatsoever. Instead of dashes, it
  shows double-width spaces.

  The HTML renders correctly if lang="de-x-formal" attribute is changed
  to lang="de". Please note that de-x-formal is a valid language code,
  as verified with http://schneegans.de/lv/ and it is found in the HTML
  generated by MediaWiki when the language is set to de-formal.

  I also noticed that the extra wide spaces Firefox incorrectly shows
  instead of dashes are in the ori1Uni font while the regular letters
  are in DejaVu Serif. With lang="de", everything is in DejaVu Serif,
  including dashes which render correctly.

  This problem does not occur with Chromium on Ubuntu, nor with Firefox
  on Debian, nor Firefox on Windows.

  Ubuntu version: Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS
  Firefox version: firefox 111.0-2 from snap

  Thank you very much for looking into this.
