This bug cannot be completely fixed in fonts due to limitations in the opentype layout engines. Also if the below base form of Ra is required to be used in Ra+Halant+RA kind of combination, it can be currently obtained with the use of ZWJ as Ra+ZWJ+Halant+Ra. Thus this bug is not worth fixing in font.
Okay thanks - unproposing and reversing devel ack.
