Re: usp10/tests: having numbers in the ScriptStringXtoCP tests causes unpredictable behavior
When does this unpredictability occur? The tests have always run ok for me.

The issue appears to be, and I am still investigating, sometimes usp10 will reorder the numbers differently. It appears to have to do with if windows and hdcs are repeatedly created and destroyed and cannot generally be recreated reliably. But if you look at earlier test runs you can see how the occasional machine was reporting ordering errors.
They are still appearing on some machines so I am trying to continue to understand this, but removing the number greatly increased the reliability of the test.
I have a modified test that demonstrates the issue. (loops and it does an Enum fonts and then then ScriptStringXtoCP test for each font. In the whole set of fonts looped 3-4 times machines will demonstrate this unreliability a few times) If you are interested in this modified test I can send you the patch.
