The only thing that seems obviously wrong with the font that I posted is that 
some of the paths of its glyphs are self-intersecting (or at least FontForge 
says so).  I thought it could be relevant to mention this.

Let me know what data I could provide to help shed light on the issue (I'll 
remove my cache-related patch and send the results in a separate reply) :)
