With the font I attached above WIN GDI is happy. For the test I just assigned a 
random unicode point to 
glyph2008 and GetKerningPairs() now works as expected. WordViewer seems to 
trust this API too and so 
has the same problem as OOo with the original "DejaVu Serif".

If GetKerningPairs() would only return the pairs it knows about everything 
would be fine too. I guess 
nobody would complain if a circumflex+comma or period wouldn't kern perfectly. 
The only way work 
around problematic fonts of this kind is is to parse the kern tables ourselves 
on Windows too, like we do 
on UNX... darn. The much simpler way is to get the most important FOSS fonts 
checked. Maybe fontforge 
should warn in this case.
