Ah, I reread your earlier (private) message. I see the problem has to do
with the use of synthesized PUA mappings. Here, the problem really is that
the font should always have a CMAP entry that maps to every glyph that can
be produced by the GSUB process. However, not all fonts do this, so in the
case in point, we have to synthesize some mapping, from which we have to
turn to PUA assignments. This works when we generate PDF since we generate
a subset font that contains the synthesized mappings. However, I can see
that if this is going to IF instead of PDF/PS, then we need to find a way
to recreate those synthesized mappings.

I think this information is really font-specific, and should not be tied to
specific text nodes though. So if Simon's fix uses text nodes, then that is
probably not the best approach.
