Works for me.

But the native hinting is still different between cff and type1 for
some glyphs.  It looks like it may be an off-by-one related to the
blues, and affects vertical stems and vertical zones for curves.

As an example, in some affected fonts which have underbars in their
glyphs for ª and º, the type1 loader results in renderings where the
a or o overhang wider than the underbar, whereas the cff loader
renders them the same width as the underbar.
