don't try to make variable fonts when source only has one master

File "/Users/marekj/release/noto-source/env/lib/python2.7/site-packages/fontTools/varLib/merger.py", line 809, in merge assert self.Format == 1 AssertionError: ('Anchor', '.EntryAnchor', 'EntryExitRecord', '[19]', 'list', '.EntryExitRecord', 'CursivePos', '[0]', 'Lookup', '[18]', 'list', '.Lookup', 'LookupList', '.LookupList', 'GPOS', '.table', 'table_G_P_O_S_')

while compiling https://github.com/googlei18n/noto-source/blob/master/src/NotoSansNewa/NotoSansNewa.plist

is it source or code or my setup issue?
