I guess you tell me that it is "broken" or bad designed font, but is there anything that can be done to display it better?
The auto-hinter is advertised to work nicely on most latin fonts, not asiatic ones. It seems that ideograms still benefit a lot from explicit hinting, and if MingLiU displays badly without the font designer's hinting (the embedded TrueType bytecode), it does mean that the font is well hinted actually :).
