Howdy,
Here is an example page displaying the bug on my system:
<URL:http://bignose.whitetree.org/tmp/debian-bug-362529.html>
That page contains example paragraphs, one with words that will result
in ligatures and one without. The style sheet for the page suggests
"font-family: Deja Vu Sans" for the text, and "text-align: justify"
for the two example paragraphs.
On my system (Firefox is iceweasel 2.0.0.1+dfsg-2, Deja Vu fonts are
ttf-dejavu 2.14-2) the page renders as shown in this image:
<URL:http://bignose.whitetree.org/tmp/debian-bug-362529.png>
Note that the first example paragraph has ligatures overlapping the
characters that follow, and that the justified text is rendered such
that the first line of the paragraph is narrower than those following.
The example paragraph with no ligatures renders with the first line
the same width as those that follow.
Correct rendering of the font would have no overlapping characters,
and both example paragraphs would have first lines the same width.
