It is not the fonts.  It is type1z's implementation of seac.
(AFAICT, ft2-b6 uses t1z by default, not the older t1.)

Another example of fonts which trigger this is B&H's Lucida family of
fonts.  The use of seac rather than a subroutine and some character-
specific placement code -- or just full duplication -- is the
determining factor.
