No, it won't. They are perfectly good TTF fonts. A rasteriser that
is not aware of sbits will simply see them as fonts with only one
glyph (.notdef).

I suggest you should add the following logic. When opening a TTF,
check the number of entries in the loca table; if it is one or less,
ignore the font.
(Note that that's the loca table, not the cmap table, which does apply
to sbits, nor the hmtx table, the treatment of which hasn't been
settled yet.)
