Mende Kikakui script rendering as LTR instead of RTL

Reported by lang.sup...@gmail.com, May 26 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_10_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/50.0.2661.102 Safari/537.36

Example URL:
http://athinkra.github.io/mende-kikakui/test/test.html

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Navigate to a page with Mende Kikakui text

What is the expected behavior?
Mende Kikakui strings should render from right to left

What went wrong?
Strings are rendering from left to right. Test page has a string containing the first eight characters of the Unicode block the k- series syllables.

Does it occur on multiple sites: N/A

Is it a problem with a plugin? No 

Did this work before? N/A 

Does this work in other browsers? Yes 

Chrome version: 50.0.2661.102  Channel: n/a
OS Version: OS X 10.10.5
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 21.0 r0

IN Firefox (OSX) and Safari the first character fo the string is displayed rightmost ... with text progressing to left as expected.

IN Chrome, the first character is displayed leftmost with string progresisng to the right (this is teh opposite of what is expected.

Mende Kikakui syllables and digits are RTL. There seems to be a bug in Chrome's bidi support.

This is a cross platform issue, not specific to Chrome on OSX.

Status: Untriaged (was: Unconfirmed)
Able to reproduce the issue on Windows 7, Ubuntu 14.04 and Mac OS 10.11.5 using chrome latest stable M50-50.0.2661.102. Observed Mende Kikakui script rendering as LTR instead of RTL.

This is a non-regression issue seen from past M35-35.0.1849.0, Hence marking it as untriaged.

Thanks!

Now working correctly. Have tested in 57.0.2987.133 on win10 and 58.0.3029.81 on OSX.

I assume this issue can be closed?
