The UC B is not rendering correctly in some combinations of Chrome + Linux versions. Internal team request to fix this.

@rsheeter do you have more details about the Linux distro and the Chrome versions involved so that we can attempt to reproduce this?

I'm edging towards a fix on this, but it will require a PR to the upstream sources, because they're not currently buildable for arcane reasons and also we need to be able to do various remapping magic to make the variant families build from the single Cormorant source anyway. (I can PR a fix to build Cormorant Garamond today, but while I'm at it it makes sense to make the other variants work as well.)
